Default How do I print only a particular section in a Word document?

I have a document that is 35 pages long and has seven sections. I have tried
sending only pages 31-35 to the printer but nothing prints. I really only
want to print section 7 or even better, some pages in section 7.

To print a specific section, enter an 's' and the section number in the
Print box. For your example, enter s7.

I suspect some or all of your sections have restarted page numbering. In
that case, you need to use the page numbers as they are adjusted, not the
absolute number of the page starting from the beginning of the document.
Combine 'p' and the page number with 's' and the section number. For
example, if the pages of section 7 are numbered from 1 to 5 (even though
they're the 31st through the 35th pages in the document), then enter
p1s7-p5s7 in the Print box.

See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting...leSections.htm for more.
