Default Printing a Column in Multiple Segments on One Page

I have a list of names in a spreadsheet column. The data takes up, say, 1/4
of the page horizontally. Let's say I have 200 names, and want to print them
in columns of 50. In other words, they should all be able to fit on one page
- 1-50 in column 1, etc.
I can cut and paste, but that's rather labor intensive.
I can print 4-up, but that reduces the font size so that it's practically
invisible.
Is there anything else I can do?

If you go to this site
http://www.asap-utilities.com/
you can download a "toolbox" full of all sorts of neat tricks.
One of the tricks (called "Paper Saver") does *exactly* what you
want.
