I just did this last week!  It prints the same thing three times
in a series of pages.  After each page the coordinate system is shifted
so that more of the display appears.  You will have to futz around with
it to get the overlaps ok, but cutting and joining is easy.  You could
add loops to cover a rectangular area.  If you generalize this, please
post for everybody!
