Actually, if they're not familiar with web anything, I think "page" is
quite good - especially if the navigation elements enhanced the concept.

And I totally agree - a lot of my users are not familiar with web
anything.
Even though this is a browser-based application it is not web-based and
most
of them won't have web access. So screen seems to be more comfortable
for
them.
