To print a document, your computer needs to be connected to
a printer. Being able to print is not necessary in order to use Word, but if
you want to send a letter in the post or print out a poster, you’ll need to
have access to a printer.
You’ll need:
- A computer with Microsoft Word installed.
- A printer set up and connected to your computer.
Follow these step-by-step instructions to print a
document from Microsoft Word
Step 1: Open an existing Word document or start a new
document and type your text.
Step 2: Once you’ve completed your document and are
ready to print, click File in the top left-hand corner of your document.
Alternatively, some versions of Word may have an Office
button instead of a ‘File’ button – it’s a round Office icon in the top
left-hand corner of the screen. Click on this if you have one.
Step 3: Move down and click Print
in the menu. This will bring up the ‘Print’ dialogue box.
Step 4: Choose how many copies of your
document you need.
Step 5: Depending on your printer options,
you can choose other printing features such as whether you want to print all
pages or only certain pages. You can also change the orientation of the print
from portrait to landscape and tell your computer and printer whether you’re
printing on a certain size of paper. You’ll also see, on the right, a preview
of your printed document will look like.
Step 6: When you’re happy with your
settings, click Print. The document will now start printing on
your printer.
