It's certainly been explained countless times in this and other newsgroups,
and it's simple logic, when you think about it. If you had four pages (pp.
1-4), you'd expect them to be printed on a single sheet. Since you have only
one page, Word prints just one page. If you wanted four copies of a
full-sized page, you'd put 4 in the box for number of copies; I've never
tested to see whether that would work with "4 pages per sheet" (I suspect
not), but it's similar logic. That is, once you know it, it seems obvious,
but of course it's not obvious when you don't know it!

Jay,
This worked (and thanks), but where could I have found this in MS Help?
I certainly could not find it on the web.

In the Print dialog, set the Pages per Sheet dropdown to 4 pages and
in the Pages box, enter
1,1,1,1
to print four copies of page 1. You won't see this in Print Preview,
which doesn't know about the settings in the Print dialog.

In Word 2007 I'm trying to print an A6 portrait orientation page so that
it
is printed four times on portrait A4 paper. I can do this without a
problem
for A6 landscape pages.
For portrait mode the result is that in print preview and in printing
only
the top left hand image is visible or printed.
The content of the Word docx is text and a table all of which is inside
the
table and margins. There is no header or footer content.
My printer is an Epson 1290 (called 1280 in USA). Print setting is
centered, maximum (also tried centered, normal)
Hope someone can help?
