Set the button's Display When property to Screen Only.
It's on the button's property sheet's Format tab.

Note: Form's are designed for data entry, manipulation , and display,

You would be well advised to create a report with the data you wish to
show.
If you wish to display the data within the form's background, on the

new name as a report. Select Report from the lower drop-down.
Now just delete that command button from the new report.
Change the Record source if necessary.
Now you can set and save margins as well as easily open the report to
just the records you want.
 
In form design view, select the command button and set its Display When
property to:
Screen Only

Realistically, you would probably be better off to create a report that
looks exactly the way you want, and print that instead of printing the form.
Here's how the button would work to do that:
