If you do change several of the things listed in the /Print menu, Lotus 1-2-3 will remember the selections that you have made and use them each time you print the spreadsheet. They are even saved with the spreadsheet so that they will be the same the next time that you use the spreadsheet.

You can specify the range to print in all the normal ways: by pointing, by typing the cell addresses of the endpoints, by enter- ing a range name, or by using the F3 key to point to a range name.

After you have specified a range to print, and changing any of the other options that you wish, start printing the spreadsheet by selecting the Go option. Lotus 1-2-3will split the spreadsheet into sections to fit onto pages if it won’t all fit on one page.

Let’s look at some of the other options on the /Print menu, and see how they add to the flexibility of printing spreadsheets.

The Line option advances the paper one line. Use this to put space between different sections of your spreadsheets when you print them. The Page option advances the paper to the top of a new page. Use this option to start on a new page.

Selecting the Align option tells Lotus 1-2-3that you have mov- ed the paper to the top of a new page. Use this option after using the Paper Feed key to move the paper or after inserting a new single sheet of paper.

The Ckar option allows you to clear any or all of the other op- tions that you have selected. The Quit option ends the /Print command and returns you to Ready Mode.

Selecting O@bns from the /Print menu presents you with some additional page format selections.

You can add Headers or Footers to each page of your output. A header is a line that prints at the,top of each page, while a footer is a line that prints at the bottom of each page.

Lotus 1-2-3 has three characters that perform special func- tions when they are included in a header or a footer. You can in- clude sequential page numbers on each page by including the # character where you want the page number to print (For exam- ple, Page #).

The current date will be printed if you include the @ character in a header or footer. (For example: AS of @.)

You can direct sections of headers and footers to the left, right, or center by using the [ character. Each header or footer is divided into three sections; Left, center, and right. The I character shows the limits of these sections. So to print a header
