My solution for printing items from programs in DOSBox is to export them
to a text file first. Then I use the system's file manager to locate the
file and open it in the editor program from which I can print. I am
using Linux, but I would guess that the same method would work with
W7/8/10.

When I export recipies from Gourmet, I use the system editor to change
the Unix/Linux line endings from LF to DOS/Windows CR/LF, which is what
is needed for pasting recipies into these messages, the following of
which is an example.

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm)

   Title: Dark Chocolate Pecan Torte
Categories: Cakes, Chocolate

--------------------------------TORTE--------------------------------
     4    Squares (4 Ounces) Unsweetened Chocolate
   1/3  c Butter Or Margarine
 1 1/2  c Sugar
 1 1/2  t Vanilla Extract
     3 lg Eggs, Separated
   1/2  c Unbleached All Purpose Flour
     3 tb Water
   3/4  c Pecans, finely chopped
   1/8  t Cream Of Tartar
   1/8  t Salt

---------------------------CHOCOLATE GLAZE---------------------------
     1  c Powdered Sugar
   1/2  t Vanilla Extract
     2 tb Butter
     2 tb Water
     1    Square (1 Ounce) Unsweetened Chocolate
          Hot Water



  Break chocolate squares into small pieces. Place the chocolate and
  butter in a small, microwave safe bowl. Microwave on HIGH (100 %)
  power 1 Minute or until smooth when stirred; cool slightly.


  Line the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan with foil; butter the foil
  and sides of the pan.  Pre-heat the oven to 350 Degrees F.  In a large
  mixer bowl, combine the chocolate mixture, sugar, and vanilla and beat
  well. Add the egg yolks, beating well after each addition. Blend in
  the flour and water, and beat well.  Stir in the pecans. Clean the
  mixer beaters very well and in a small bowl beat the egg whites, cream
  of tartar, and salt until stiff peaks form; carefully fold the egg
  whites into the chocolate mixture.  Pour the batter into the prepared
  pan. Bake for 45 minutes or until the top appears dry, (The torte will
  NOT test done in the center).


  Cool 1 hour.  Cover and refrigerate until firm.  Remove the side of
  the pan.  Invert onto a serving plate and carefully remove the bottom

  of the pan and the foil.  Pour the Chocolate Glaze over the torte
  spreading evenly on the top and sides.


  Chocolate Glaze:

  In a small mixer bowl, combine the powdered sugar and vanilla extract
  and set aside.  In a small microwave safe bowl, place the butter,
  water, and chocolate.  Microwave on HIGH (100 %) power 1 minute or
  until smooth when stirred.  Add to the sugar mixture, beating until
  smooth. Add hot water, 1/2 Tsp at a time, if needed until the desired
  consistency is reached.
