I like the a2ps utility as it allows printing in various formats. The
easiest I use is:
man 8 fubar | a2ps -P printer
(the -P option is only needed for a non default printer)
BTW, I use CUPS and its lpr emulation.
By default, a2ps will print two pages to a sheet and can do even more
or only one plus many more ways to enhance the print.
