Print multiple pages on a single sheet of paper

Use the printer software to print multiple pages of a document on a single sheet of paper. The printer software automatically resizes the document text and images to fit on the printed page.

To print multiple pages on a single sheet of paper

1.Open the Printer Properties dialog box.

2.Click the Features tab.

3.In the Pages Per Sheet drop-down list, select the number of pages that you want to appear on each sheet of paper.

4.In the Page Order drop-down list, select a layout for the pages.

A preview of the page order is displayed at the top of the Features tab.

5.Select any other print settings that you want, and then click OK.

Resize a document

Use the printer software to print a document that is formatted for one paper size on another paper size. Doing this can be useful if you do not have the correct paper size available.

For example, if you have created a document that is formatted for letter-size paper, but you do not have any letter-size paper available, you can print the document on another paper size that is available.

To resize a document for a different paper size

1.Open the Printer Properties dialog box.

2.Click the Features tab.

3.Click Scale to paper size, and then select the target paper size in the drop-down list. The target paper size is the size of the paper on which you are printing, not the size for which the document was formatted.

4.Select any other print settings that you want, and then click OK.

Print preview

Use the print preview function to view a printout on your computer before printing a document. If the printout does not look correct, you can cancel the print job and adjust the print settings as needed.
