I don't think anyone can prevent you from doing this even if they had
objections, but thanks for asking.

What are the logistics? Are you using the list archives? Are you going to
manually go to each thread topic and select "View all messages in this
Thread" so that you can see the entire discussion on one page? If so,
you'll get a lot of repeated text because when people reply, it often
includes a copy of the mail they're replying to. For example, the "Selects
with drop downs" thread, when I view all the messages, the original
question is repeated 18 times and would take about 70 pages if you were to
print it.

If you're going to manually prepare a document to print, the names and
phones could be manually removed from the document. The archives should
already have emails removed.

If you want other current discussions to print, you could look at
stackoverflow.com and view anything with an "accessibility" tag.
