CRTBNDRPG uses the QSYSPRT printer file, so however that printer file is
set up will control your listing.

===> DSPFD QSYSPRT

Some possibilities that I can imagine:
- an override in your job for QSYSPRT to have 80 columns
- a change on your system for QSYSPRT to have 80 columns (at least, I
_think_ it's shipped with 132, but I'm not sure)
- another QSYSPRT defined with 80 columns that is higher in your library
list than the QSYS version
