Edit your Vantage.INI file and adjust the ReptLPP setting down to a smaller
number. We use ReptLPP=88 to avoid the overflow on our printers.

Vantage prints a fixed maximum number of lines per page; but printers'
fonts all vary a little, so the actual number of lines crammed on a page
can be different between printers. Our worst is an HP 2100; 88 lines is
the most it will take. But that leaves a lot of margin at the bottom with
other printers here.

We purchased a Lanier 5435 Copier/Printer several months ago and have
had problems printing some reports to it. When we print
Vantage "canned" reports to the printer, the first page is correct.
The second page prints one or two lines and then the rest of the page
is blank. Page three prints correct and page four is similar to page
two. It seems that report builder reports print correctly. This
printer has a duplex feature, therefore we would like to use it as
much as possible, to save paper. Has anyone out there had this
problem with an "off brand" printer, and how did you decide what
driver to use?
