Printing More than One Page per Sheet

Word includes a nifty feature that allows you to print multiple pages on a single sheet of paper. For instance, you can take two pages of your document and print them on a single side of a piece of paper. Word allows you to print 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, or 16 actual pages per printed page. This can save quite a bit of paper, but it can make reading the output more difficult.

To control this setting, follow these steps:

1. Load the document you want to print.
2. Press Ctrl+P to display the Print dialog box. (Click here to see a related figure.)
3. Use the Pages Per Sheet drop-down list to specify how many pages should be printed on each sheet of paper.
4. Specify any other printing options, as desired.
5. Click on OK to print your document.

Remember that the larger the number you choose in step 3, the more pages that will be printed on each sheet and the smaller each of those pages will appear.
