Several commands are available:

drscheme: PLT's main Scheme development environment

mred: a Scheme GUI engine
mzscheme: a text-based Scheme interpreter

Printouts from DrScheme are automatically sent to the default system printer. If you need to use a different printer, print to a file and then print the file to the desired printer.
