I would recommend HyperCard 2.1 with a StyleWriter. 2.0v2 should work 
also, although 2.1 was beefed up to handle printing all card sizes to all 
printers. With 2.0v2 you'll only get to print full size cards.
  HyperCard 2.0 has a gnarly bug where printing to almost any spooled 
device (ImageWriter, StyleWriter, DeskWriter,...) will blow up or give 
some really strange results, kind of like the ones you describe.
