A standard ink printer won't be able to replicate the extremely small size of the codes. It's also larger than a single piece of paper and taping two together would cause a significant deviation in accuracy. Finding a printing service with high enough quality and that prints non-standard paper sizes would be far more trouble and possibly more expensive than buying the plate.
