I don't have a printer available to me but I quickly tried the technique in this article:

Try printing this document from Chrome (and maybe some other browsers) and tell me if the header ("header stuff") repeats on each page:

- _anomDiebolt_8 years agoQrew EliteUsing FireFox I just printed that page to pdf and the headers repeated. Lack of a printer (and time) makes this a little difficult to explore but I think there is a chance you can get this to work. The printed pages QuickBase generates simple <table> markup so i guess eventually you could get this method to work ( it would involve minor reformatting the standard QuickBase page using script).
However, I am not going to put anymore time into as I have other work to do.
Contact me off-world if you want to pursue a solution:
https://getsatisfaction.com/people/dandiebolt - _anomDiebolt_8 years agoQrew EliteI just got it (my test page) to print the pdf with repeating header from Chrome. So I would anticipate some script rearrangement of QuickBase report would print with repeating headers.
I realize this may sound like crazy talk to you if you are not a developer but we look at problems differently focusing on the technical details. Bottom line I think it can be done with scripting. - RodHastings8 years agoQrew MemberThank you for the time and a solution. Great to know it can be done. May be beneficial to pass on to the QB developers for the next update to help all. I will find a developer that can implement it until then.
- _anomDiebolt_8 years agoQrew EliteFrom what I tested today and my prior look at this going back years, I THINK it can be done. But this type of thing requires time to explore every detail. I invest a lot of time on my own to keep up with web tech so I explore issues like this every day. But if you want a solution you are going to have to wait for QB or you can contact me off-world:
