Problems printing selected pages
I am using MS Word 2000, Windows XP Home and a Canon i850 printer. Whenever
I create a mail merge document for printing mailing labels, I am not able to print selected pages. I can print using the "all pages" or "current page" options, but if I select a particular page range to print, nothing happens. I have no trouble with other Word documents which have been created as normal documents, only with documents which are created as Mail Merge documents. Can anyone explain what is going on? |

You're dealing with sections, not pages (every page is page 1). Use s2
instead of p2 to print the second sheet. For more, see the "Print specific pages and sections" portion of the "Print a document" Help topic. -- Suzanne S.

Hi Hector, A mail merge creates a document in which each page is a separate section, and page numbering is restarted so that every page is numbered 1. If you want to print the third page, you have to tell Word to print section 3, so put s3 in the Pages box of the Print dialog. See http://word.mvps.org/faqs/formatting...leSections.htm for more info. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org |
