I have a form and a subform within it, the form has a page header and the
subform has a page header. but only the page header of the main form prints.
is there any way to make the subform's page header print too?

Forms are not designed to PRINT. Reports are.

I would recommend that you build a report and print it. You could even add
a button to your form to cause the report to print.

As you have discovered, reports have the appropriate controls and settings
to handle how they print, forms do not.

i need it to appear at the top of every page, not just the first page.
and i cannot put it in the page header of the main form, because the main
form has tabs each tab has a different subform and i need a different page
header to print with each subform

a report may allow me to print but it would not suit my other needs. is
there any way to do what i need to do with a form?

PageHeaders also don't print from sub-reports. The parent container is in
charge of all things page related. At least with a sub-report you could
define a top-most group header based on a non-changing value and set
AutoRepeat to True. There is no way I know of to do this when printing a
form.
