View 7 RepliesI have a workbook with 4 spreadsheets, each taking 1 page to print.
I want Sheet 2 to print on the reverse side of Sheet 1 and Sheet 4 on the reverse of Sheet 3 so that all four pages of data takes 2 sheets of paper to print.
I have tried selecting 2 sheets at a time and 4 sheets at a time but printing result is always single sided even though "duplex" is selected in printer properties. In the Print dialog box I have tried selecting "Active Sheets", "Entire Workbook" and even "Selection". I've also tried specifying pages 1-4 rather than All. Eventually, by printing to a PDF creator, I have concluded that Excel is treating each tab is a separate print job. i.e. I get 4 separate PDFs.
I am trying to use code from a Microsoft site to set the printer to duplex, but it crashes right away. "Printer" is highlighted, and the error says "variable not defined." ...

I have a VBA procedure which uses Windows API calls to write to a system ini file (which I understand is a necessary requirement of the Cute software), which loops through all the sheets I need to print, and sends them one by one to a Cute pdf printer. However each time the 'print' instruction is invoked - I say print but of course this is really a file save process, the Save As dialog box pops up asking the user to confirm the save.
What I want to achieve is the file gets saved automatically, with the relevant sheet name with no confimation dialog box.
My company started using preprinted forms to print out delivery receipts with a dot matrix printer. We only need to print 2 pieces of data on this form at specific places, then move onto a new form and print the next 2 pieces of info. Ive tried searching and haven't found anything remotely related to this situation.
Essentially, we will have a spreadsheet with 2 columns with cells containing stock codes eg:
StockA1 StockB1
StockA2 StockB2
etc
The number of rows will vary, one week may be 20 rows of info, the next may be 76 rows.
I need to be able to take the info in each row, and send it to the printer so that it prints in the right place of the form, and move onto the next row/page until all rows have been printed.
Currently, I have a spreadsheet with a bunch of empty rows, 2 rows where the info needs to be, then more empty rows followed by the next 2 items, empty rows etcetc...As you can imagine this could require some tedious reworking week after week as the number of forms to be printed changes each week.
There has to be a better way to do this! I havent got the experience of working with excel (or dot matrix printers)
We have just refreshed our entire printer fleet to Xerox printers and as part of the project we have selected all defaults to B&W and duplex.
On a multi sheet excel file, If we click print then choose entire workbook and then change the print options to colour, it prints the only first worksheet in colour, and all the others in mono. i have read that excel treats each worksheet separately and does not cascade the changes made made in the first worksheet even if all sheets have been selected.
How can I get them all to print in colour?
We can set up another printer and change the defauts to colour but we dont want to go down that road and have 2 printers installed for each model.
Is there any code out there can will/ can change the properties of the first worksheet and cascade this throughout the workbook.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've noticed with a spreadsheet at work that if you print a sheet it also prints the other sheet.
The first sheet is the data and the second is a graph formed from this data.
Is there an options to set to do this or is because its a graph formed from the data sheet that it automatically prints?
Print sheet 1, 3 and 7. Always print sheet 1, however only print sheet 3 and 7 if there in these sheets are values in the cells from row 8 and below.
(If that is to complicated it would be ok if the condition for printing sheet 3 and 7 is that there's a value in e.g. cell A8.)
I managed to create this script that allows me to print sheets 1, 3 and 7, however I can't seem to find out where to put the if-statement (I suppose that's how you do it?). Here's the script i created so far:

Can I have in a sheet module that will prompt a message box to open and ask to copy the amount of worksheets from the number in cell M5 in Sheet 1 Sheet 2 cell M5 will also contain a number also the other sheets will to Print that qty. of sheets from the workbook. these sheets are name sheet1, sheet2, sheet3 and etc.
But, there are other sheets I would only need 1 or 2 print outs these sheets have names in the tabs.
Excel 2010. I have a workbook that has multiple sheets where some have headers and others do not. Some sheets are static in that no user input is required and others are dynamic so the toal number of pages per worksheet may vary based on how much information the user inputs.
An example:
Sheet 1 is static and requires no input, it does not have a header or a page number. For compliance reasons this sheet must be printed on top of all the other sheets in this policy
Sheet 2 is dynamic. This sheet can range from 2 pages to 5 pages depending on user input. This sheet must have page numbers starting with 1 and it must have a header on page 2 through the last page, but no header on page 1.
I am currently using a worksheet_activate sub to input data into the headers and footers of sheet 2. This works very well and puts the data where I want it to go just by using the "Different First Page" option in the headers design tab.
The problem arises when I select both sheets to print. Excel now thinks Sheet1 is the first page, so the first page of sheet 2 now has a header and the page number beings at 2 instead of 1.
Where I can stop this from happening?
Current sub:
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
' If WS is activated, place information in header
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
'Policy #
[Code] ..........
As I said, this works all well and good for when I'm just printing Sheet2 but when I have to print Sheet 1 & 2 together, it no longer prints the way it should. There are times when Sheet 2 will be the first page of the overall document but there are a few instances where it will be second to Sheet 1 and I run into this issue. Is there a way to specifically reference which headers/footers the code will input the data?
I am trying to find a way to print an "entire workbook", but have each of the sheets paged as a group separate from the rest. One workbook typically has up to 20 sheets, with each sheet up to roughly 8 pages. I need each sheet set to show page 1 of 8 or page 5 of 8, not page 22 of 53. Counting and typing in the total number of pages in each sheet's footer is too cumbersome. Also, printing each sheet individually has also been cumbersome when printing to PDF. Are there any other ways to have the "&[Pages]" function only reflect the number of pages within the sheet instead of in the entire workbook?

I attached a simple wokbook that explains how ranges are positioned in my workbook, i hope that it is possible to print these tables in the sequence shown in the file by a single command.
i want to ask if are some way to do it , to show 2 sheets in 1 sheet , because what i am trying to do is , with VBA copy table with pictures from database sheet to printing sheet , add blank columns and create another table in that blank area , and got this problem that formating goes crazy , because each table need different row heights. Maybe there is any way to copy my database sheet and paste special that it don't cares what i will do with row heights?

I would like to know if there is a way to print several different workbooks at once but keeping my printing format which I would like to be Landscape and Fit to one page. Reason is simple as I work in a office where staff is handed in several jobs to do everyday. They finish the jobs and log all the info on the database. I log on to database and put all their daily diaries and because it is all over the place I have to go in each file and set printing preferences which takes an hour in the morning and hour in the evening. I could do with some sort of automation where all diaries are automatically printed in Landscape and Fit on one page.

I want the user to be able to choose a printer but not print at that time.
1. Store the active printer as a variable using application.activeprinter
2. Have a dialog box (the printers available) popup and have them choose one, then store that
3. I know how to do the rest, but I will have the word document print out with the selected printer, then use the application.activeprinter reset to the original one
Is there a way to set the printer's properties using VBA?
Sometimes we set the printer for BEST quality to do photos or brochures. Well if we don't change it back, when we go to print a spreadsheet, it takes forever because it is set on best quality.
So......
I want to be able to set the print properties to normal using VBA.
I need an assistance in setting up a VBA for the default printer in my office. The issue is I want my spreadsheet to be set up to wherever I open the spreadsheet at any computers in the facility. I want the sheet to be printing out directly at the printer in my office only. Is there a way to do this?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a file for which I wish only selected pages to be printed, so I have disabled the print function in the ThisWorkbook module. Instead, the user chooses from a menu of available sheets to print, via a user form, and then requests the print.
I've got most of this sussed in my mind, but the users need the option of which printer to use (loads of networked printers available and the choice will depend upon monochrome for draft print or full colour for final print), so I want to be able to call up the printer dialog box using
Application.Dialogs(xlDialogPrint).Show
BUT!!!!
I want all the options on the dialog box disabled, except for the choice of printer as clicking OK after choosing the printer adds the active sheet to the list of items to print.
