If they do it, it obviously is ;)
You'll need server-side scripting in any case. Then you can go to the
trouble of creating for example a .rtf file (a bit like .doc, but much
simpler; I beleive there are compilation proggies available), a .pdf file
(e.g. make your script generate a LaTeX file, then use latex2pdf) or
something similar. The simplest way, though, is simply to create an html
that prints nicely and instruct the user to use the printing functionality
of his browser.
