Well, all of them were not really meant serious.

But, ok, depending on the program you used for creating this converted pic,
it might be possible to export it as image file (ASCII-Generator
(www.ascgen.co.uk) does this, too). Since you are using Windows, open this
image in Paint and simply print it. Paint will automatically print it to
multiple pages without scaling. My test image was 380 character wide and
with font size 10 it was 4x3 pages large. Maybe you have to test a bit with
the appropriate font size and image size. FinePrint helps a lot, because you
can se the output before it is printed, so you can save many sheets of
paper.

I don't know if there is a text editor capable of doing this.
