Default How to send each document as a separate print job in Word?

If you execute the merge to a new document and then run a macro containing
the following code, it will send each letter to the printer as a
separate print job, so that the printer can then do its thing as it does
when printing a single letter.

Dim i As Long
With ActiveDocument
For i = 1 To .Sections.Count Step 1
.PrintOut Range:=wdPrintFromTo, From:="s" & i, To:="s" & i
Next i
End With

Thanks a bunch...do you know if you can adjust it to print 10 at a time? I
have over 1100 pages.

Default How to send each document as a separate print job in Word?

I have my printer to print both sides...it's cookbook to be exact and I don't
know if there is there a way to include a message box to continue to print
the next group or end the print job...this may not be possible, but printing
all 1100 is overwhelming for my printer.

Try

Dim i As Long
With ActiveDocument
For i = 1 To .Sections.Count Step 1
.PrintOut Background: = False, Range:=wdPrintFromTo, From:="s" & i,
To:="s" & i
Next i
End With

The computer should not then send the next print job until the present one
is finished.

If you want to modify the macro between each batch, you could replace the
line

For i = 1 To .Sections.Count Step 1

with

For i = 1 to 50

then after the first 50 are printed, change it to

For i = 51 to 100

etc.

I tried the the code and it works find but now it will print double sided. I
have my printing peferences set to duplexe so I wouldn't have to do it
manually. So I'm not sure whats going on there and I tried the modifications
and it will only print the first four pages no matter what # of page to print
(ie 51-100)...any suggestions?

The code is telling the computer to print the document 1 section at a time,
not any particular number of pages. Do you have more than one Section in
each letter?

That is a setting of the printer, nothing really to do with Word.
