Script copies everything printed to a terminal to a file; the file can
then be printed.  Man script.

Another approach is to use the left mouse button to highlight the
whole screen, bring up an empty dummy file in an editor such as emacs
and paste the screen into the dummy file with the middle mouse button.
This dummy file can then be saved and printed.  Kludgy, but it works.
