It doesn't answer your question, but here's how I escaped a printer-less environment decades ago and became much more productive:
My first salaried job in the 70's was being hired as the fourth programmer in a tiny Palo Alto contract programming company. We had a couple of Data General minis, two slow teletypes, and no CRTs. We worked on large assembly language programs, marking up listings for as long as possible before reprinting. After I couple of years (during which we only gained a 30 character per second dot matrix printer) I quit and looked for a company with better resources. Found a decent job at a company that happened to also have a 300 line per minute chain printer. It was heaven.
