If you mean that you're telnetting in from a client, and would like to print your telnet session transcript locally then yes, you can use a decent telnet/ssh client such as PuTTY, log the session, and then print that locally. Say you want to print a file, you could just cat, then copy the selected part out of the telnet session transcript and print it locally.
If that's not what you mean, I'm confused too!
We use PPTP tunnels via GPRS at work (this is Windows though, with Citrix) - we also allow telnet into our HP-UX box via the PPTP connections - and using the logging method described our users can print pretty much everything. We also have another telnet client (TinyTERM) that allows them to do full screen dumps to the locally attached printer.
Cheers

telnetrc
telnetrc(4) File Formats telnetrc(4)
NAME
telnetrc - file for telnet default options
DESCRIPTION
The .telnetrc file contains commands that are executed when a connection is established on a per-host basis. Each line in the file con-
tains a host name, one or more spaces or tabs, and a telnet(1) command. The host name, DEFAULT, matches all hosts. Lines beginning with the
pound sign (#) are interpreted as comments and therefore ignored. telnet(1) commands are case-insensitive to the contents of the .telnetrc
file.
The .telnetrc file is retrieved from each user's HOME directory.
EXAMPLES
Example 1: A sample file.
In the following example, a .telnetrc file executes the telnet(1) command, toggle:
weirdhost toggle crmod
# Always export $PRINTER
DEFAULT environ export PRINTER
The lines in this file indicate that the toggle argument crmod, whose default value is "off" (or FALSE), should be enabled when connecting
to the system weirdhost. In addition, the value of the environment variable PRINTER should be exported to all systems. In this case, the
DEFAULT keyword is used in place of the host name.
FILES
$HOME/.telnetrc
