Default Print on smaller paper?

I have a document that is 12 pages long and I would like to know how to make
it printout on Franklin Planner paper that is made for their Classic Planner
(5.5 X 8.5). The pages are on a standard 8.5 X 11 sheet with the Planner page
located on the left-center of the page. I want to be able to scale down the
page so that it looks like the full page only smaller print so that it fits
the Planner pages.

Any help would be great!

Did you try the "Scale to paper size" option in the Print dialog box?
Note, however, that the possible selections depend on the printer.

If you have Word 2000 or above, try using the "2 pages per sheet" setting in
either the Print dialog or the Page Setup dialog, whichever is more
appropriate.

I have checked and I set it to scale down but it won't. It will print out on
the smaller paper but the font and type stays the same so it really is not
scaling it down. Plus the 5.5 X 8.5 is located in the center left of a
standard sheet of paper.

When I try to print it prints to the center of the page.

I'm confused about where the page is located, but if it's a portrait page in
the center left of a larger portrait page, then you'll need to set Word for
the standard (Letter) size and increase the top, right, and bottom margins
accordingly.
