And you can't just supply the bank statements because....???

You can see what's missing by looking in the register and viewing the
information you want:

  View -> Filter by... -> [Status]

Then unclick Reconciled (and potentially Cleared if you wish).  Then if
you want to print THAT out you can run Reports -> Account Report
from the register window.

Or one could just supply the bank statement, which has the
exact same information.
