The Amiga workstation is able to dump xwd dumps to almost all types
of known printers.  In particular most of the available color printers
on the market are supported by the builtin Amiga software. This includes
the Tek color printers as well as HP, Xerox, Seiko, Howtek Pixelmaster,
Calcomb colormaster, etc.

All you need is ethernet/tcpip/nfs/X11 for the Amiga (All available).

Connect it up and you have a print server for X Windows that can drive
just about any parallel or serial printer available on the market today.
