Terry, Robin, Richard,

I selected the right-most box and then clicked Zoom to Selection, which
seems to go further in than 200%. I do not see any characters whatever
beyond the boxes themselves, so Robin, you are probably correct; VCF is
allocating some portion of the right margin, for whatever reason. I made
those boxes a little less wide (rather than nudging them left) then tried
Size to Components again - the blank "pages" are now gone.

If the printer driver has anything to do with it, I'll have to live with
it, as I already have the latest driver HP provides.

thanks, beth
