Are you doing a SET REPORT DEVICE xxxxx after doing the SET PAGE WIDTH?
SET REPORT DEVICE tends to set width and length back to the default; in my
experience it works better to do the SET PAGE WIDTH after the SET REPORT
DEVICE. I am not sure about the screen, I have had printed reports come out
the wrong length because of this.
