Perhaps all you want is to print plain text directly?
To print plain ASCII text on dot-matrix printers, use a
"System V style interface script", see "man lpadmin", "man filter",
the "CUPS Software Programmers Manual" section "Writing Filters" and
http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Using_Your_Own_Filters_to_Print_with_CUPS
