in Ubuntu you can change the margin in GNUCash menu using

File->Page Setup->Paper siz: Manage Custom Sizes: Here you can change the margins and paper sizes.

let me know how it goes

Greetings, and thank you for the suggestion. Unfortunately I do not have any margin adjustments in the print dialog for Ubuntu 22.04.

For tax purposes I generally use the "print to file" option and print to a PDF, and the bug affects the PDF copies. I haven't experimented much with printing directly to a printer, but maybe it happens less on an actual printer,

Although the print dialog doesn't give any options for margins, just a "scale" (percentage size) adjustment. Just in case that's what you meant, I just adjusted the scale to 93%, and the text did NOT overprint on the second page, but it DID cut the line in half (half printed on page 1 and half on page 2).

Fortunately, if I really need a report to print correctly, I can copy it from the on-screen report, paste it into a word processor document, and adjust table columns and fonts until it looks right.
