Would something like this be easier done in Java or VB. Which would be the easiest path / worth it in the long run to learn?

My guess here is that you envision someone on the internet is browsing a
web site and fills out a form. You want that form to print on the web site
owners printer?

I think that's a WILD idea... however it is only possible if the CF server
has network access to the printer.  Is the CF server in the web site owners
offices or on his intranet?  If not, is the web site owners printer exposed
to the internet?(...bad idea!)

If there is no direct access by CF to the web site owners network perhaps
some work around where CF writes files to an ftp directory and then some
process runs in the web site owners offices (a delphi or vb program or
script or some other windows routine), that is busy  reading that ftp
directory and downloads and prints the forms... doable yes... practical...
that depends upon the value of the information in the form.
