Linux, where I can format them as ps or pdf files. In extremis I can
even convert WP files to MS Word files using OpenOffice.
I'm impressed that you're using WP5.1
with dosemu! But I have no trouble printing from WP8. As you indicate you have a functioning WP8, you may find my page about Debian and WP8 useful. It's at
http://ul451.gsu.edu/~pwiseman/WP8_and_Debian_GNU_Linux.html
It includes stuff about getting WP8 to print with CUPS. It also works beautifully.
