I haven't seen anything that will do this.  If you had an Amiga printer
driver for a compatible printer, you could select SERIAL printer in
Preferences, and connect a terminal with serial file capture facilities
to the Amiga's serial port.  Then do an Amiga screendump with something
like GraphicDump on Workbench 1.2.  The compatible screendump data
would be captured to a file on the terminal, and could probably,
with little or no modification, be sent to the other laser printer.
