1. create a PDF of your question paper, say q.pdf.

2. create another TeX file, print.tex as given below:

  \documentclass[a4paper]{article}
  \usepackage{pdfpages}
  \begin{document}
  \includepdf[pages=all,%
              nup=2x1,%
              frame=false]{q}
  \end{document}


3. Run pdfLaTeX to compile this document ==> print.pdf

4. View and print this file as you print any other PDF.

5. You need pdfpages.sty to do the above trick, grab it from CTAN.
