I can't see any option to repeat on the end of the month -- nothing found under "Simple options," nothing found under "Advanced options." Also, on the Help/FAQ pages, there's no mention at all of the feature; in fact, the help still warns users choosing the 31st will cause the task to be skipped on months with fewer days.
You're using the old version of Toodledo.

You can change to the new version at Modify Default Settings.

Actually, it's not really new. It was introduced on March 7, 2017 and the option to make it the default became available on May 19, 2017.

@pawelkaleta,

At the bottom of the Repeat field there's "End of Month" with a horizontal band of white space.
If you click anywhere in that space, you'll get a checkmark at the right. This will override all the other settings for repeat.
Not intuitive.

Contrary to what Aaron says, this is not "a setting to automatically roll over overdue tasks to today". Key word is "automatically".

In any case, it seems that Aaron will be dropping by once a month to provide an update and he will not be responding to user questions. After all, he is CEO of Toodledo so he is obviously busy dealing with all of the executives that report to him ...

I was thinking of creating a default response, similar to what Jake had when he responded to a feature request. Something like:

"Thanks for asking. Unfortunately, Toodledo does not provide answers to support questions in these forums and I am not interested in providing free support now that my subscription will be tripling in price."

Well, perhaps things will change ...

There's the Printable Booklet.

Also, you can create and save Advanced Searches, and then view and print a saved search.

The most advanced option would be to download your tasks to a CSV file, import the file into Excel, format your list in whatever way you want, and then print. You could automate most of this if you're familiar with macros.

It's good that this feature request is on the "In Progress" list and it's reasonable to assume that the feature will be implemented soon.
The Road Map is much better than Jake's refusal to make any items on his list visible to users. Not only does the Road Map provide a list of suggestions and the status, it will also provide a timeline so that it will be more obvious when there are old, unimplemented requests.

But, so far, the only change that has actually been implemented is the increase in pricing.

We'll see what happens in the next few months.

It has been on the list since at least April 2009:
Repeat on last day of month

FWIW, Todoist and RTM have the option.

From the Help topic How do repeating tasks work?
Monthly: It will repeat on the same day of the month (eg., every 16th). It is important to note that if you repeat a monthly task on the 30th or 31st, it will skip over months that do not have that date. For example, a monthly task due on Jan 31 will skip to March 31st because there is no Feb 31st. If you need to repeat a task at the end of the month, we recommend having it due on the 1st of the following month with a 1 day reminder or start-date.
What's missing is the ability to specify a task that repeats on the "last day of the month".

And, since Jake is no longer here:
"Thanks for the suggestion. We do not comment on timeframes for implementation, but this is on our to-do list."
:-D

FWIW, the Terms and Conditions have been changed. The page is available from a tiny link at the bottom of the subscription page.

In the first paragraph, it says this:
TOODLEDO MAY MAKE CHANGES TO THE CONTENT OFFERED ON THE SERVICE, AT ANY TIME WITHOUT NOTICE, AND TOODLEDO CAN CHANGE THESE TERMS AT ANY TIME. IF TOODLEDO CHANGES ANY OF THESE TERMS, TOODLEDO WILL POST THE UPDATED TERMS ON THE SERVICE. TOODLEDO MAY ALSO SEND REGISTERED USERS THAT HAVE SUBMITTED THEIR EMAIL ADDRESS A NOTICE OF THE CHANGE TO THESE TERMS. YOUR CONTINUED USE OF THE SERVICE AFTER SUCH CHANGES HAVE BEEN POSTED ACKNOWLEDGES YOUR AGREEMENT TO THE NEW TERMS. THEREFORE, YOU SHOULD CHECK THE TERMS OF USE POSTED ON THE SERVICE PERIODICALLY FOR UPDATES AND CHANGES.

For anyone who is wondering about the popularity of various online task managers, there's Alexa website traffic statistics.

For example:
Toodledo
Remember The Milk
Todoist

And, for comparison:
Evernote
Slack

And one more difference: Todoist is allowing free users to upgrade now to a paid subscription at the current price of $29 per year before the price increases on December 1.

When Toodledo announced that the price will increase in 2019 for renewing subscriptions, the price for new subscribers was immediately increased to $60/year for Silver and $90/year for Gold.

Another minus for RTM that I just remembered:
...
It also doesn't have these fields ...
Earlier in this topic I summarized the main differences between Toodledo and RTM:

It says it interfaces with Outlook, but I don't know if that means Outlook tasks or Outlook calendar. I need an interface with Outlook calendar. I need an interface with Outlook calendar. I'm wondering if I can configure my Google account so that it subscribes to my Outlook calendar and gets RTM tasks so that I can see if I'm scheduling a task on an already busy day without switching tabs to look at a calendar and then my task manager.
RTM syncs with Outlook Tasks.
Check out the Synchronization section in MilkSync for Microsoft Outlook.

And Google Calendar.

Skip occurrence of recurring task
Re-use sets of tasks/subtasks as templates
Flags and Icons, in addition to Contexts and Tags
Conditional formatting based on practically unlimited number of rules
Specify fonts, size, colors, gradients
Customizable themes
Customizable date formats based on time frames
