Everything lines up perfectly to that point, but the last lines always print at the top of the next page.

I don't see any commands in the print tables that would control this, like logical page size or something, and I really don't know any PCL anyway, so I have wasted a lot of time trying things that don't work.

Try setting printer to LEGAL size and adjust your filePro form as well
Printer code ESC&l3A  (that is ESC + & + lowercase L + 3 + A)

or set page length using ESC&l#P  where # is number of lines per page

Good luck!
