How do I make the group column header print across the report?

I want to find a way to make the group column header print across the report,
instead of being as wide as the column itself.

In a multi-column report?
You can't.
What you can do is size the report width to the full width of the
paper (less left and right margins).
Place the labels that normally you would place in the group header in
the Page header.
Repeat them across the page for each column.

Click on file + Page Setup + Columns
Uncheck the Same as Detail Check box.
Manually enter the wanted column width.

Run the report.
Adjust the spacing and placement of the page header labels.

The report is a multi-column report but all columns are reporting the same
field (Requirement_ID). Example:

Group Header
Requirement_ID Requirement_ID Requirement_ID
Group Footer

Is there a way to go around this by fat-finger coding?

I would remove the details from the main report and place them in a
multi-column subreport. The main report GROUP HEADER would become the detail
and contain the subreport.
