I was going to suggest that as one possibility.  I don't use a  
multiclip app, but there are several, and there has been discussion  
here about such in the past.

Also, you might try just doing a clipboard append job, which you can  
do with pToolSet without pScripts.  Copy the first item the usual way,  
then with pToolSet open pEditTool, select the next text to  
copy(append), do menu/Edit/Append to ClipBoard, and repeat with each  
item until done.  Then when you print, the whole collection will print.

If you find none of this is suitable, I'll post a bunch of pScripts  
that will give you up to ten separate virtual clipboards, none of  
which is the normal built-in clipboard.  To use clipboard A you would  
highlight select the text you want and run one pScript, "Acopy".  To  
print you would run another pScript, "Aprint".  For your complete list  
you would use "Bcopy" and "Bprint", etc., up to "Jcopy" and "Jprint".   
If you lose track of what's where you can run "ShowList" which shows  
you the text in A, B, C....J.  The copied text remains  
retrievable/printable until either you re-use the relevant copy  
pScript or you soft reset, same as the normal clipboard.

Let me know if you want these.
