If I understand you correctly, you have a DOS program
which should come with a driver for a PostScript printer.

If so, (in Real DOS) load the TSR PRN2FILE.COM
http://66.102.7.104/search?q=cache:bmEfoampFEIJ:www.resortdata.com/customers/knowledge/KB-DOS/K000176.htm+PRN2FILE.COM
and print your stuff.

A *.PS file will result (or you can rename it to that).
In Windoze, open that file with GhostScript (GSView) and print it.
