efaq: Printing a Texinfo file
3.6 How do I print a Texinfo file?
==================================
You can’t get nicely printed output from Info files; you must still have
the original Texinfo source file for the manual you want to print.
Assuming you have TeX installed on your system, follow these steps:
1. Make sure the first line of the Texinfo file looks like this:
\input texinfo
You may need to change ‘texinfo’ to the full pathname of the
‘texinfo.tex’ file, which comes with Emacs as
‘doc/misc/texinfo.tex’ (or copy or link it into the current
directory).
2. Type ‘texi2dvi TEXINFO-SOURCE’, where TEXINFO-SOURCE is the name of
the Texinfo source file for which you want to produce a printed
copy. The ‘texi2dvi’ script is part of the GNU Texinfo
distribution.
Alternatively, ‘texi2pdf’ produces PDF files.
3. Print the DVI file ‘TEXINFO-SOURCE.dvi’ in the normal way for
printing DVI files at your site. For example, if you have a
PostScript printer, run the ‘dvips’ program to print the DVI file
on that printer.

(Installing Texinfo documentation).
