I like to stick with the standards I learned in my Typing class in high school.  It is from the Gregg Typing book.  8"x11" paper, with 1" margins all around, leaves 6.5" line length and 9" of lines top to bottom.  At 10 cpi and 6 lines per inch, that is 65 chars/line and 64 lines per page.  I use Courier New, a monospaced font, too.
