If you merge to a new document, is the result complete?

no this did not help, although the print did seem a little faster.

So what type of information was missing? Is there a pattern to it?

there is no info missing , the print run stops before it has completed all of
the letters.

So, if there is no information missing from the document created by
executing the mailmerge, it is not a mailmerge problem, but a problem with
your printer.
