One option is Bitaddress.org (offline of course) > Paper Wallet > Hide Art > BIP38 Encrypt > Print 7 per page.
Yeah I've printed out a couple of those before but 7 per page is kind of on the low side I was hoping I could get more onto a single page. At least 30 but I'm not sure if that's really doable since I don't want to shrink them down in size.

But it's Legacy. I know there's a Segwit version of the site, but I haven't used it (and wouldn't easily trust it).

I wouldn't trust it either not after what some person experienced with using it. Granted, he was putting his private key onto their website directly rather than running it locally but still! He tried pasting in his address to sweep the funds to but then it changed the receiving address. Then he changed it back to his again and clicked submit but it still sent it to the other address! Imagine ignoring a warning like that and going ahead and losing 0.01 bitoin anyway.

it does sound like spyware but it remains unresolved to this day. as far as i can tell.

Further imagine that happening to the same person two times! I bet he runs everything locally now.  Grin probably with a subscription to malwarebytes or mcafee antivirus for good measure. Smiley
