That's what they did with the (I think) 9830 and 9866 printer. I actually
found one of the "combining stands". It's just a C-shapped metal frame
like
a printer stand except that it fits over the calculator and hold the
printer. It's nothing real special but it is an interesting accessory.
Here is a picture of the stand allowing an HP9866A printer to be
placed over an HP9825A.

I haven't actually seen one close up, and for some reason I assumed
it was made from some sort of plastic (like the cases of the HP-85)
but in retrospect it was probably easier (from a tooling perspective)
to use a metal stand.
