That depends almost entire on your target printer, but in short
(assuming a LaserJet):

convert it to a PCL raster file (with either ImageMagick's convert and
some hand hacking in vi, or Bob Rasumssen's toy I forget the name of),
and hook it to a print code: you'll have to wire the positioning into
the print code, IIRC.

Cheers,
