You do not need a blank page for printing at all. You could create a local RDLC report with the text boxes and then fill them using the data entered by the user in the web form. You can display the report using ReportViewer control on the same page where the form is, maybe you can hide the form and display the report through the viewer which has a print button.
Or you can just use CSS to format the web form and javascript window.print()

Thanks Marc Gabrie!! Can you give me an example of using Css to format the web form and javascript window.print()?

I do not have a specific sample but you can get many hints by googling "css for print". And for javascript printing, just add a button or link with the window.print(); code in the onclick event.
