For printing in the background get a copy of MaxPrint.  This is
a print spooler which really works.  It works quite well with all
the applications I've tried it with so far and prints quite well
to the Imagewriter.  They do have a note about it only working
with the Imagewriter and not working with AppleTalk printers.
It installs as a DA and allows you to specify which drive should be
used for sppooling.  Thus you could create a sizeable RamDisk and
spool to it and have things work quite well.  I have noticed no
problems just spooling it to a SCSI hard disk although you would
probably want to avoid spooling to floopy.

It also comes with a RamDisk program that seems to work adequately
although I actually prefer RamStart+.
