To be honest, I don't know a really solid solution for this. We could:
1. Remember the tops of each textbox and move textboxes 2-n down if needed

Option 1 may mean the textbox spills to a next sheet of paper when printing (Don't even know if the last one will print if it spills over if your print area is too small?)
Option 2 will nog guarantee they don't overlap
Excel is not the best program to use when it comes to printing large amounts of texts. More than ~1000 characters quickly becomes cumbersome.
