You are welcome.

The following command will convert them to postscript. You can then view
them with ghostview, print them on a postscript printer, or print them
with ghostscript on windows.
For example, to get the man page for "ls"
groff -man /usr/man/man1/ls.1 >ls.ps
You can add an output device type such as dvi (to print with a TeX package),
or ascii (plain dumb text such as notepad). That would be:
groff -Tdvi -man /usr/man/man1/ls.1 >ls.dvi
There is a nice Tex/LaTeX implementation called "MikeTex" for windows.
