I don't know of a way to print directly from the clipboard. You can paste the text into a new document of any text editing program, notepad widget, etc., and print from there. Also, in some applications (MS Word, for example), if you select text in the document and then Print, there's a radio button option to print just the Selection, which will print only the text you have selected without needing to copy/paste.
