See this class:
.divDutySlip {
width: 90mm;
min-height: 120mm;
padding: 2mm;
/*float:left;
position: relative; */
margin: 2mm;
border: 1px solid #000000;
page-break-inside: avoid;
}
I have commented out two styles. Commenting them out causing the content to page-break correct. No "Duty Slip" is split across a page:
Now, if I introduce the float and position styles and try again the page break logic fails. If I try to print landscape then I get slips side by side but they still split on page breaks. This example is with a lot more content and I have blocked out the names:
So how can I fill the page with these slips and prevent splitting over page breaks? At the moment the only way I can do it is by commenting out those styles and limiting to one column of duty slips.

Fiddle:
In case if you would like to have all the dutyslips in one page you can create a wrapper div for all the dutyslips and add display flex style to it. https://jsfiddle.net/jhbktoya/1/
