If you want to print all the columns in your select clause you can go with the autoprint command.

CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE sps_detail_dtest(v_refcur OUT sys_refcursor)
AS
BEGIN
  OPEN v_refcur FOR 'select * from dummy_table';
END;

SET autoprint on;

--calling the procedure
VAR vcur refcursor;
DECLARE 
BEGIN
  sps_detail_dtest(vrefcur=>:vcur);
END;

Hope this gives you an alternate solution

You can use a bind variable at the SQLPlus level to do this   Of course you have little control over the formatting of the output   VAR x REFCURSOR  EXEC GetGrantListByPI args   x   PRINT x

Note  This code is untested  Define a record for your refCursor return type  call it rec  For example   TYPE MyRec IS RECORD  col1 VARCHAR2 10   col2 VARCHAR2 20          --define the record rec MyRec         -- instantiate the record   Once you have the refcursor returned from your procedure  you can add the following code where your comments are now   LOOP   FETCH refCursor INTO rec    EXIT WHEN refCursor NOTFOUND    dbms output put line rec col1       rec col2             END LOOP
