How about using ':grep' when searching through the entire file?
function! Grep(pattern)
exe 'grep ' . a:pattern
let @/ = substitute(a:pattern, '/\(.*\)/.*$', '\1', '')
copen
endfunction
command! -nargs=+ Grep call Grep(<q-args>) | set hls
cnoreabbrev grep
Grep<Space>//<Space>%<C-Left><C-Left><Right><C-r>=Eatchar('\s')<CR>
(for Eatchar(), :helpgrep Eatchar )
I prefer Quickfix list more than ':print' output. Just personal preference
:)

Subject: Re: Suggestion: Highlight the search pattern in :g/.../# or
:g/.../p
The final version I added to SearchParty:
function! PrintWithHighlighting() range
let lnum = a:firstline
let lnum_len = len(line('$'))
for line in getline(a:firstline, a:lastline)
echohl LineNr
echon printf("%*s ", lnum_len, lnum)
echohl none
let lnum += 1
let ms = match(line, @/)
let me = matchend(line, @/)
while ms != -1
echohl none
echon strpart(line, 0, ms)
echohl Search
echon strpart(line, ms, me - ms)
echohl none
let line = strpart(line, me)
let ms = match(line, @/)
let me = matchend(line, @/)
endwhile
echon line . "\n"
endfor
endfunction
command! -range P <line1>,<line2>call PrintWithHighlighting()

Thanks all!
Based on your input my final version (taking into account vim's number
setting):
command! -nargs=? P :call PrintHighlighted(<q-args>)
function! PrintHighlighted(arg)
echo ""
if a:arg == "#" || &number
let l:lnum = line(".")
echohl LineNr
echon " " . repeat(" ", len(line("$")) - strlen(l:lnum)) . l:lnum . "
"
echohl NONE
endif
let l:line = getline(".")
let l:pos = 0
while 1
let l:ms = match(l:line, @/, l:pos)
if l:ms == -1
echon strpart(l:line, l:pos)
return
endif
echon strpart(l:line, l:pos, l:ms - l:pos)
let l:me = matchend(l:line, @/, l:pos)
echohl MarkerBlue
echon strpart(l:line, l:ms, l:me - l:ms)
echohl NONE
if l:pos == l:me
echon strpart(l:line, l:me)
return
endif
let l:pos = l:me
endwhile
endfunction
