Don't know if you've got this handled yet or not.
1. There are some libraries available for Clipper that will print graphics. The one I am most familiar with is out of business.
2. If your BMP could be converted to a PCL, then Clipper coupd print it to a Laser printer simply by copying it to the lpt port.

Hope this helps
