An easy way to print out UNIX command line man pages.
man -t ls >ls.1.ps # print to postscript man page of command 'ls'
zathura ls.1.ps # read the postscript with zathura.
ps2pdf ls.1.ps # convert to PDF
lpr ls.1.ps # send to lpr (printer)

--A man page viewed with zathura:

I found out about this while on OBSD. On GNU/Linux, the syntax differs somewhat.

You can use pipes:
$ man -t ls | ps2pdf - ls.pdf
$ man -t ls | lpr
You can also substitute every "ls" with "$1" and write each of those lines in executable files, maybe named "man2pdf" and "man2lpr", that you can put in a directory listed in $PATH (so that you do not need to specify their paths to execute them).
