I can not think of any way that Alpine could feed automatically a *full* 
message to a script. Alpine can feed automatically the main body of a 
message to a script, but not the full message. I believe that you need 
another tool that can extract attachments, so you can send the attachment 
to the printer, but Alpine is not the tool for that.
