My point was that then doing one of:

  groff -t -man -Txhtml filename >file.html
  groff -t -man -Thtml filename >file.html

should work since the page length for html is as clone to infinite as
can be specified.

The "supporting macro package" part suggests that the an macros probably
do not work with that, so the only way is to use a device with an
essentially endless page length.

And then use a browser to print it.
