Depends on the OS, and the model of the printer, and what its interface is.
If it's a printer that DEC software understands, the WPS family of word processing
software would be a nice option. There's WPS-8, WPS-PLUS for RSTS, various others
probably as well.

Hi,
I want to use my daisy wheel printer to create letters and memos and similar (rather
simple) texts.
What can I use to write the text?
I think "special effects" with daisy wheel printers are "bold" and
"underline" parts. And "double stroke" (if that's the correct
word, I mean a space char between each char).
groff (or any *roff) comes to my mind. Are there other options?
regards,
