   You could try texi2roff, available on prep.ai.mit.edu. (and other places).

And the version on prep is usually the lastest version.  There is also
rumoured to be a standalone info viewer but whether that is under
development or just thought/design is unclear.

I presume you know that texinfo can be turned into either TeX or info,
yes?  Well, then, know that info can pretty much be printed as is.  I
mean, you loose all the nice formatting, and page breaks are pretty
weird, but it beats the hell out of reading TeX or troff source.
