rsdos, or os9?

Under OS9:

if    /p is your printer device, try:

dir >/p

that will redirect the output of the dir command to the printer.

Or, do a dir >dirtmp.txt
  \
that will redirect the output of the dir command to the file dirtmp.txt.
and then send that file to the printer, however you do it.

There are also ways you could do it with pipes.
