That could be fun. You could control a printer using Pd without too
much difficulty. That idea reminds me of the classic Dot Matrix
Symphony:

I had an Idea... (again in the shower.. great place for inventing): What if (like GEM) you could use PD to control certain aspects of a
printer. for example, a set of number boxes would control color, and
another set would control the catridge rack (the thing that moves to
control the lateral movement of the cartridges), and another set would
control the paper mover.. uses?
- Possibly, if you wanted to, have PD instead of printing to the main
window, to the printer. 2. Draw pictures directly to the printer 3. use the printer as a visualizer for music
performances/applications. (i.e. "convert" audio art to visual art.)Just a thought -Robert
