I had to do something similar dealing with UB92 forms.

My solution was to have an offset of X and Y in an INI file on the workstation that the user could define by running test prints. My wrapper code copies the FRX to a temporary FRX table and then SCANs the temporary table and adds the X and Y offset defined by the user to the X and Y position of all of the objects in the FRX. Then calls the REPORT FORM command using the temporary FRX file. Works great.

Additionally, you have to contend with each printer's PHYSICALLOFFSETX and PHYSICALOFFSETY which is the printable margin offset for each printer on the LEFT and TOP of the page where it can physically start printing on the page.
