The printer settings are ignored when you print a Word document

SYMPTOMS

When you print a Microsoft Word document, the printer settings are ignored. 
These printer settings include the paper size, the page orientation, and the

page margins.



Consider the following scenario. You change the properties of the printer 
driver to specify paper size, page orientation, or page margins. However, 
when

you print a Word document, its paper size, page orientation, or page margins 
differ from what you specified in the printer driver properties.



CAUSE

This issue occurs because the Page Setup settings that you specify in your 
Word document override the settings that you specify in the printer driver 
properties.



WORKAROUND

To work around this issue, do not specify the paper size, page orientation, 
or page margins in the printer driver properties. Instead, specify these 
settings

in your Word document. If there are multiple sections in your document, you 
must specify the settings for each section of the document.



To specify these settings, follow these steps:

1. Start Word, and then open the document you want to change.

2. In Microsoft Office Word 2003 and in earlier versions of Word, click the 
page or the section that you want to print, and then click Page Setup on the

File menu.



In Microsoft Office Word 2007 and Word 2010, click the page or the section 
that you want to print, and then click the Page Layout tab. In the Page 
Setup

group, click Page Setup to open the Page Setup dialog box.

3. Click the Paper tab.

4. Under Paper size, click the paper size that you want.

5. In the Paper source area, perform one of the following steps:

. If the printer can automatically select the correct paper tray to use, 
click Default tray in the First page list, and then click Default tray in 
the Other

pages list.



Default tray is the default setting in both of these lists.

. If the printer cannot automatically select the correct paper tray to use, 
you may have to select the paper tray that contains the paper size that you

selected in step 4. To do this, click the appropriate paper tray in the 
First page list and in the Other pages list.

6. If you want to change the document's page orientation or its page 
margins, click the Margins tab.

7. Select the options that you want.

8. Perform one of the following steps in the Apply to box:

list of 3 items nesting level 1

. To use the paper size that you specified in step 4 for only the current 
section of the document, click Selected text.

. To use the paper size that you specified in step 4 for the current section 
of the document and for all remaining sections in the document, click This

point forward.

. To use the paper size that you specified in step 4 for the whole document, 
click Whole document.

9. Click OK.

10. Repeat steps 2 to 9 for each section of your document for which you want 
to specify settings.

  Subject: [Blind-Computing] Setting print sides in MS word?


  Listers,

  I don't know how to change the print sides when printing in word.  I did a
  double sides printing and my brother says the print was quite large, but 
the
  document was done well.  Then I did a booklet printing and the print was
  quite small.  How do I change the print sides in MS word?

  Thanks to all.



  Carliss



  P.S. I'm using MS word2007.
