As Hilmar had mentioned, check the page layout of the report. The 1 inch top margin is probably the result of one of two things:
* you've set "Print area" to "Printable page" (I usually prefer to use "Whole page" as it allows printouts to be more consistently positioned -- printable area varies from printer to printer)
* Check the page header on the report form.

As Hilmar had noted, the printable area would vary according to brand/make/model of printer. I'd also seen situations where non-printable margins being different for each edge of the paper (i.e. top, bottom, left and right non-printable edges were all different sizes). Most of the single-sheet fed type of printers I'd seen tend to have non-printable margins (i.e. they don't print all the way to the edge of the paper). The last time I recall seeing a printer that printed all the way to all edges of the paper, they were the older continuous-feed dot-matrix type (though finding supported print driver that allows you to take advantage of particular printer's capabilities has become difficult).
