Thanks to everyone who noted that ^P followed by ESC will put the ESC char
into the text file.

Unfortunately, that doesn't appear to solve my problem of getting arbitrary
esc seqs sent to the printer.  ^KP appears to translate the ESC char to the
literal "^[" (2 chars), at least in document mode.  I can use TYPE, but that
doesn't give me the formatting ^KP does.

Am I missing the obvious (besides WINSTALLing again)?  I'm just certain I
solved this problem 5 years ago, but too many brain cells have died in the
interim.
