Record set printing is often a mystery -

I often need to print a List View, but the printed result is very unpredictable.
Sometimes it turns out how I want, but other times the page is limited to the top of the page (see attached photo), and 3 times as many pages print since the whole page size isn't utilized. It seems to depend on the size of the columns and how many are hidden, etc, but I can't be sure what factors make it work.

The best workaround seems to be printing to pdf, checking it, and then printing that.

It would be great if:
1- Prints always utilized the full page
2- There was a print preview option
3- There was a way to specify Landscape vs Portrait
