Nancy,

There is an option in output.  Press F8 and select option J.

This will ask what field and where you want it.

Have not tested this with 5.6.07 about printing across a page break.

I did this for a client who needed a full page of extra shipping
instructions.  Set a field in the file to Y when he added a memo.  When the
finished contract printing, the processing checked for the Y.  If there, the
program systemed out and printed a full page memo.  Works nicely.
