As explained in another post, the way to achieve this would be to create 
a canvas similar to the one in MorphicPostscript, except that it would 
have to generate something that Windows understands (GDI calls or a 
Windows Metwafile).

Then you'd have a basis for hooking that up to the OS-level printing 
routines.
