Default Using a monochrome printer with full colour stationery

Thank you very much, Peter! That is very clear and simple.

Set up a template (call it "Letterhead," say) with the top margin wide enough
to clear all the pre-printed information, and start a new document not by simply opening Word or typing Ctrl-N, but by clicking the Office Button,
selecting New, and double-clicking on the Letterhead template.

(Or, if almost everything you do on that computer uses the letterhead, then
make the change in the Normal.dotx template, and create a new template to
use if you ever type something that doesn't go on letterhead.)

NB A template can have a "Different First Page," so the following pages can
have a higher top margin since you don't use letterhead there.

I am using Word 2007 and I am thinking about ordering pre-printed
stationery with a full-colour letterhead and logo. However, I only have
a monochrome printer. Is there a way to tell the printer to ignore the
pre-printed sections of a letter, invoice or whatever I have created,
and only print the document specific information? If so, how should I do
that? Can this be set in Word, or is this something the printer driver
does so that this varies per printer type?

Thank you for any pointers you may have.
