I do a similar thing with the HP (PCL) control language. My Brother printer (with its drivers) only understands Postscript and pdf. I made an input filter (for lprng) that changes PCL to pdf, using pcl2pdf, which is part of GhostPCL (http://www.artifex.com/downloads/). I tell my DOS programs that they are talking to an HP Laserjet. Pure "raw text" is first changed into PCL by prepending a PCL initialisation string. This works. DOS programs can print both text and graphics. Maybe doing it with epsonps would be simpler.
