(Do you mean: as a table?)

If you are already getting your results as an Org table, try 
adding 

#+ATTR_LATEX: :environment longtable

to that table.  This will use the LaTeX longtable package and
environment to format the table, which should take care of breaking it
across pages.
 
Best,
Richard
