Excel printing problem
When I try to print 1 copy of my Excel spreadsheet, 2500 copies print
instead. This does not happen in Word. The File Print function lets me select 1 copy, but when I hit OK to print, it begins a countdown, eg now printing 1 of 2500. I have restarted my computer and my printer. I have not run diagnostics on the printer bc this problem only occurs when printing an Excel file. Please help! --- Message posted from http://www.ExcelForum.com/

Excel printing problem
Does this happen when you print this particular workbook only or is it
for all excel files? What add-ins are checked under toolsadd-ins? -- Regards, Peo Sjoblom "sandy " wrote in message ... When I try to print 1 copy of my Excel spreadsheet, 2500 copies print instead.

Excel printing problem
Perhaps it's printing 2500 pages, not 2500 copies. That could happen if
the used range is larger than it needs to be. There are instructions here for resetting the used range: http://www.contextures.com/xlfaqApp.html#Unused sandy wrote: When I try to print 1 copy of my Excel spreadsheet, 2500 copies print instead.
