Printing from a phone? Use the PDF. Phone print dialogs ignore this page’s margin settings and add their own, which can split the survey across two sheets. The PDF is already laid out as one page, so it prints the same everywhere.

From a computer, either works. In the print dialog, turn off headers & footers and set margins to Default or Minimum.
