The CSS print property 'page-break-before' comes in handy when splitting up tables / content to print on separate pages:

Also 'page-break-after':

The THEAD tag is the correct tag but not every browser supports it. If you
try to "fake" it by manually breaking up the table, you might help some
people whose printer behaves the same as yours but others may have the first
table spill to the next page or the next table start early at the bottom of
the previous page.
