One workarround wld be to create another windows printer (generic / text only) with output set to serial port i/o lpt1
Then simply switch output destination by using

set printer to name (cSerialPrinterName)

You can also produce report as text file and then copy it to serial port.
There was an example of this here, and also should be some tools/examples here in downloads. But I cannot realy remember name of that file.
