as stated in the octave manual, printf() will cycle through
the template untill all values in the matrix have been printed.

The fastest & easiest way is to build a matrix containing all
vectors & matrices you intend to print. Beware that matrices
are row-read, thus, if you begin with column-vectors you will
have to transpose the final matrix to get what you want. For
instance, you could create M as

> M = [ T X ]'
ans =

 Columns 1 through 5:

    1.000000   2.000000   3.000000   4.000000   5.000000
    0.239984   0.059694   0.685484   0.148572   0.102026
    
 Columns 6 through 10:

    ...
    ...

and then print it using

> printf ( '%f\t%f\t%f\n', M' )

1.000000        0.239984        0.214949
2.000000        0.059694        0.821710
3.000000        0.685484        0.509631
...
8.000000        0.572745        0.700116
9.000000        0.921823        0.710626
10.000000       0.930813        0.827124


voila!
