I cannot vouch for how well it works (or even *if* it works :-) ), but
on the CMU mirror we maintain you'll find a Fortran routine written by
Robert Eden that looks like a network printer (standard LPD stuff) but
instead of printing the file, submits it to VMS for processing.

It's on ftp.csus.edu:/pub/cmuip/contrib, filename cardreader011.share.
Grab the readme file there for a tad more info.
