True, but unfortunately the concept of print does not translate well to the web. CSS colums can either be width or height limited:
Fix to 2 columns: you cannot control the height, if it goes beyond the screen height, users need to scroll down on the first column, then scroll back to the start of the 2nd column.
Fix to the screen height: you cannot control the width, it it goes beyond the screen, users need to scroll horizontally to read the text. Although this somehow would work, it's really not general behavior on the web to scroll horizontally.
