Default printing on one page

Does anyone know if there is a way to force word to print everything on one
page? I keep printing my documents, and the second page is always blank
besides for the footer, which a real waste of paper. Is there anyway to stop
that from happening?

Thanks.

Thanks. I assume that it is really just a bunch on useless enters. But is
there a way to tell Word that I don't want them printed without deleting them
averytime? Or is there a way to fit everything I want to print on one page?

If it is "just a bunch of useless enters" you can select them and
format them as Hidden text. But if you're going to select them anyway,
it's less work just to hit Delete.

Or, in the Print dialog, you can click Current Page option, or click
in the Pages box and type 1. But there is no option that says "always
ignore a blank page", because -- as the article explains -- Word
doesn't consider a page that contains paragraph marks to be blank.

I don't see why you would have to delete them every time. Deleting them once
and saving the document should suffice. But if you read the article
carefully, you would see that are other possible causes besides "a bunch of
useless enters"; what you do to solve the problem depends on what is
actually causing it, and you need to (at the very least) display nonprinting
characters to confirm whether it is in fact empty paragraphs or something
else that is causing the problem.
