I always take screen shots of important text messages that are stored as pics on my phone. Those pics can be easily transferred to your PC but depending on your needs this format may or may not be user friendly. You can insert a series of screen shots into a Words document etc and adjust the size of the images on the document before printing. 

On the plus side this method preserves the exact message and cannot be easily edited so it can be useful for legal or other applications where it is important to guarantee the originality of the source. Besides printing they can be easily attached to emails etc as well.

On the down side most text exchanges (if not all) have a shaded text box for one of the correspondents to easily, quickly and clearly designate who wrote what which depending on your ink budget may not be so printer friendly. I always print B&W unless color is needed for something but either way that shaded background can waste a lot of ink. The other down side is that the text from a screen shot is not quite as clear as the original text. As long as you are not enlarging the text it should not affect readability with a decent printer.

I have not tried that. I use it primarily to work with excel spreadsheets.
