You might try what was suggested above. A lot will depend on how the
client talks to the printer. I know with HPs, you can just telnet right
into port 9100, type whatever you want, and when you close the
connection, everything you typed will just spew out printed. If the
connection is something like that, then plaintext snarfing plus some
editting might get you the document.
