492 Chapter 17 Review and Deliver Presentations
If you will print a color presentation on a monochrome printer, you can preview in gray-
scale or black and white to verify that the text is legible against the background.
Tip In Normal view, you can see how your slides will look when printed on a monochrome
printer by clicking either the Grayscale or the Black And White button in the Color/Grayscale
group on the View tab.
When you’re ready to print, you don’t have to leave the Backstage view. You can simply
click the Print button to print one copy of each slide on the default printer. If the default
settings aren’t what you want, you can make the following changes on the Print page:
● Number of copies Click the arrows to adjust the Copies setting.
● Which printer If you have more than one printer available, specify the printer you
want to use and set its properties (such as paper source and image compression).
● Which slides to print You can print all the slides, the selected slides, or the current
slide. To print only specific slides, click the Slides box, and enter the slide numbers
and ranges separated by commas (no spaces). For example, enter 1,5,10-12 to print
slides 1, 5, 10, 11, and 12.
● What to print From the Print Layout gallery, specify whether to print slides (one
per page), notes pages (one half-size slide per page with space for notes), or an
outline. You can also print handouts, specifying the number of slides that print on
each page (1, 2, 3, 4, 6, or 9) and their order.You select what to print from this gallery.
