Printing documents in Word is easy. you'll find everything you need in the
Backstage view
under Print.
The print pain offers a list of options and a preview of the document on the right.
You can use the controls below the preview to zoom in and out
or switch between different pages.
Now you could you enter the
number of copies you want and click the Print button right away, but if you want
more control over the finished product
you might want to take a look at the options below. For example if your
computer is connected to multiple printers, you can choose the one you want.
You can also use a custom print range if you're working with a multi-page
document and only want to print certain pages. Just enter the page
numbers you want, separating each entry with a comma. In this example we're
printing pages 1, 3, 4, and 5, but excluding page 2.
Next, choose whether to print on one side of the paper or both sides;
your options may vary here depending on your printer's capabilities.
Here's another option that may be important to you if you're printing a multi-page document.
If you're doing more than one copy, make sure that Collated is selected.
That way, each copy will be printed in order.
Next you can review options that have to do with page layout including page, such as
orientation, paper size, and margins. If you need to make any adjustments
just click, then make your selections from the menu.
Let's try narrower margins.
See how they were updated in our print preview after making this change?
Word also gives you the option of printing more than one page on a single
sheet of paper. This can be helpful in some cases, but note that the text will
become harder and harder to read more pages you include.
When you're ready go ahead and click the Print button.
Alternatively, you can save time using something called the Quick Print command,
which prints your document using the default settings and the default printer.
You'll just need to add it to your Quick Access toolbar.
Let's go back to our document.
And I'll click the arrow here...
and select Quick Print.
And now you can quickly print your entire document in a single click!
