I agree with Paul, with my own code I seldom print it out. 
In one 2 year project I only printed the code for walkthroughs
and a final copy to keep when I left the project.

When I was doing extensive modification of an existing compiler,
I got two tables (you know, those things with 4 legs and a flat horizontal
workarea), complete listings and a complete cross-reference, as well as all
the documentation available on it.  I did the job in record time and the
quality was -- no bugs.  (ok, maybe one -- and it was for internal use only
so the usage was not as large as for a released product)

   Anything I say will be used against me ...
   But my company doesn't know or approve or condone anything of mine here.
