On a basis of personal experience with it, I recommend David Sapir's
LQMatrix package, which consists of a font editor and a font downloader.
It is designed for use with Epson LQ printers, but I have used it with
an NEC P2200 with no difficulty.  LQMatrix is a shareware package available
from Public Software Library in Houston.  I believe that the registration
fee is about $35.00.  

This recommendation is personal, and does not reflect the views of my 
employer.
