There are times when you don't want to print an entire document, but only a specific portion of the document. You can do this in Word—just start by selecting the portion you want printed. Then display the Print dialog box by choosing Print from the File menu.
To print just the selected portion of the document, choose Selection in the Page Range box, and click on OK. You should note that when you print a portion of your document in this manner, headers and footers are not printed—only the text you selected.
