Default Change printing default in Word

No, but you can add a toolbar button or shortcut key to print the current
page. Unfortunately, there's no built-in command for this, but a very small
macro will do it. The macro you need is:

Sub PrintCurrentPage()
Application.PrintOut Range:=wdPrintCurrentPage
End Sub

Install the macro as described at http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm
and assign it to a toolbar button or shortcut key. If you choose a button,
you can use the default printer icon for the button or modify it with the
button editor or choose/create a different one.

Hi, I work in large Word 2003 documents but nine times out of ten I only
want
to print one page, can I change the print dialogue box so it defaults to
"current page" rather than "all"? I can't tell you how many times I have
had
to abort the whole document printing just because I have forgotten to ask
for
the current page only - it really messes my printer up doing that! I
already
took the "print" button off the toolbar for the same reason!
