Because a worksheet is massive –the software makers have built-in a logic that it should print only the area that contains data. Print area is by default set to cover all the cells that have some data. If data there is a lot of data Excel will cover it all in print. If you give print command –it will print all the cells. At times you may not need printout of all this. MS-Excel provides you with the option of selecting a specific area for printing. This saves you from printing unnecessary pages. To set the print are, do as follows:
Select the area that you wish to print Go to Page Layout tab Click on Print Are button Select “Set Print Area”
The selected area will be marked with distinctive border. You can select and add more print areas –and all the selected areas will be printed in one command. But these areas may not necessarily be on one page. Following the steps given in the previous section –you will also get option to clear and already set print area. All the print areas will be cleared if you select this option. Also, MS-Excel will automatically calculate and set new print areas as per your printer settings.
