What works without any real-time assumptions is the following.
Move the mouse pointer on the OK button.  Press the mouse button, but don't
release it yet.  Press the command-key and the F key, don't release yet.
Release the mouse button.  Wait until you see a message saying that the file
is not sent to a printer.  (I get the message: "Why don't you buy a
Postscript printer?" -- is this a joke from Apple?)  Then release the keys.

This even works from menus, like in Hypercard.  (You don't get a dialog box
there when you print.  It just prints)  You pull down the menu, select the
option Print, keep the mouse button pressed, press the keys, release the
mouse, etc.
