A make in src/share/doc/handbook produces ascii and html format
documents.  The ascii version could be printed.

sgmlfmt -f latex handbook.sgml produces handbook.tex.  Run latex
_three_ times on it and you get a .dvi.  Should only need two passes
to get the page numbers right. :-(

ftp://ftp.irbs.com/pub/handbook.ps.gz

if you don't have TeX installed.
