I have a REALLY low tech method that I've used in the past.

Assuming they have a reasonably powered PC available... setup a ODBC
connection and use a word processing mail merge to handle the printing.

I used this method for audit letters more than once and it worked great.  I
created a work file that contained all the necessary information (I didn't
want the system, which was an F35, working too hard).  The accounting
department was thrilled, because they were quite familiar with PC word
processing and mail merges.
