CSS2 includes page-break-before and page-break-after properties.
Specifying position:fixed will cause a box to repeat on every page.  I
am not sure if this is supported in any browser, but that's where I
would start.

See http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/page.html for details on paged media with CSS.

It would be the best solution (and the easier to use too) if it where 
supported. I've tried it in the past and failed miserably due to lack of 
support. Try alternative representations for printing, like

<LINK REL= "alternative" MEDIA="print" HREF="myfile.pdf" 
TYPE="application/postscript">
