There is no simple setting, no. You can do this with a macro or styles
depending on the contents of the letterhead. If the letterhead is text only,
then you need to color the text white (not hidden because then it won't take
up space) for printing. You can do this by changing the definition of the
paragraph style(s) used in the letterhead. If you have more than one style
or have used direct font formatting, you might find it more satisfactory to
define a character style to overlay the entire text. In any case, your
macros will toggle the text color between Auto and White.
If the letterhead includes graphics, then you make them "white" by setting
the brightness to 100%.

Is there an option to print / not print headers and footers?
After thinking and rethinking how we are going to implement a project,
there may be a simple solution.
Is there a way in Word (both PC and Mac) to have the option to print
headers and footers. I cannot seem to find it in the dialogue box when
printing, but you' dthink it should be there.
Here is why:
Let's say you want to print on letterhead, but your word template
already has the letterhead in it. You'd want to be able to turn off the
footer and header to use the actual printed stationery.
We can no longer use macros to do what we wnated to do. To see what we
were trying to do, pleae check these two threads.
