Nah, I think that a good tutorial can do far more for a game than a thick manual. And SE4 has an above average tutorial.

Adding in some advanced tutorials, like building ringworlds, and designing ships with large selections of equipment, and detecting cloaked ships might be handy, but I think tutorials are far more useful than a thick manual.

Sure a tutorial helps but you still need a manual. A tutorials are very limited in what they can show. And if you want to look something up its a pain. I for one like to read over the rules before goingto bed. That my point.

Start at the top page and select "Print . . . " from the File menu. There's a place at the bottom of the window that'll pop up for turning on "Print all linked documents" and, if I'm not mistaken, using that option should print out everything for you. I've not tried it myself but I'm pretty sure it works.
