There is a commercial package available that provides hardcopy support for
BGI. It is called GRAF/DRIVE PLUS, from Fleming Software. The blurb in The
Programmer's Shop (page 51, Spring catalog) says: 

BGI-compatible graphics drivers for Turbo C/Pascal.  Implements most Turbo
screen graphics functions for LaserJet and Epson, postscript, and HPGL pen
plotters. Often a graphics program can be proted [sic] to a hard copy
device by 'installing' a hard copy driver instead of a screen drivers.  No
royalties.
