Personally, I recommend giving up on Times for two reasons: there is NO
technical solution to the problem you describe, and Times isn't all that
readable on paper either.  Its letter spacing is very tight, perhaps
because it originated as a newspaper typeface, optimized for printing
relatively short pieces in small amounts of space, using narrow columns.

I like both Bookman and Palatino, both of which are very nice on the screen
AND on paper; another good one is New Century Schoolbook.  And if you don't
mind downloading, Adobe has the Lucida and Stone families of fonts, both of
which were designed specifically with this situation in mind.
