If you print with the Windows printing system (that is, if you use the standard report), you can't avoid the page eject - the Windows printing system prints entire pages. You can, however, define a custom page size, so that the "page" according to the printer is only half a real page, for instance.
If you print in text mode (sending codes and text to the printer with "???", for instance), you have full control, since you have to send all printer codes - including chr(12) for a new page - yourself.
