Explanation

Before printing, you should check the worksheet layout and make sure the report is readable and properly divided into pages.

Key Concepts

  • Page Setup: Configure margins, orientation, paper size, scaling, and print settings.
  • Page Break Preview: See exactly where Excel will divide the worksheet into pages.
  • Repeat Header Rows: Keep important column headings visible on every printed page.
  • Print Preview: Check the final appearance before printing.
  • Fit Sheet on One Page: Use when the worksheet is small enough to remain readable.

Example

Prepare a 20-student performance report:

  • A4 Paper
  • Landscape
  • Narrow Margins
  • Print Area selected
  • Header row repeated
  • Gridlines hidden
  • Fit to one page wide
  • Check using Page Break Preview

Practice
