Are you printing to a dot matrix (impact) printer? If so, to add to what George has said, set your default font in the report designer to Courier New size 12 for a good approximation of 10 cpi & 6 lpi output. Also, you will get much faster printing if you bypass Windows and print directly to the printer. One way to do this is to use the TO FILE [filename] ASCII clause in your REPORT FORM statement, then use low-level file functions to read the file and issue a "???" statement to print each line directly to the printer. Another way is to use the RAWPRINT5.FLL library which I think is available in the UT files section.
HTH,
