Not yet. You can create the XML file via a batch script if you want, but
there isn't a way to send it to the printer via something like a --print
option without launching AbiWord. The thought of doing this had come up,
but nobody has made up their mind on how to get it implemented. In other
words, this may or may not be added depending on how cool of an idea it is.
For this particular case, I think there are decent odds, but there are no
guarantees here.
