We're using a package called 'tplus' to do that job.  The output of
troff is piped through the program and then to lp, and everything comes
out fine.  As I recall, installation was a bit tricky, but that's where
the fun is.

It's available from:
	Textware International
	PO Box 14 Harvard Square
	Cambridge, Mass		02238
	(617) UNI-TEXT

Disclaimer:  I don't know anyone who works for Textware, or their cats.
	     But it works!
