A lot depends on your dotmatrix printer drivers under windows. Try it and see is the easy solution.

If not . . .
There are several specialist printers who have plotters on which they can print your charts, of course if you have access to a plotter you can do so yourself as well.

I have an HP Deskjet printer (HP5550, a couple of years old). Its driver supports HP banner paper.

This paper is rather expensive and limited to only twenty sheets. However, I have found that I can use micro-perforated continuous listing paper in its place. I simply remove the perforated strips from the edges before using.

I now only need to join the strips together rather than individual sheets.
