Re: Can't get page 5 out of Word by itself

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Does the document have multiple sections? If so, it can get confused if you
give it an absolute page number reference to print. Depending on the
printer driver, you can probably select "current page". But, that is
painful if you need multiple pages (requiring you to do it multiple times).

If you want to print only selected pages from certain sections, you cannot
intuitively tell the printer to print pages x, y, and z. You have to tell
the printer both the page number and section in the format pxsy, where x =
page number and y =
section.

Example: To print all of section 2, type s2. If you want to print pages 1-3
and page 5 in section 1, and page 2
in section 2, under PRINT, PAGES you would enter the following range:
p1s1-p3s1,p5s1,p2s2.

This is VERY dependent on printer driver, so YMMV.
