How to print all sheets except one specific sheet in Excel?

Author Sun Last modified

When working in Excel, printing multiple sheets is a common task. But what if you need to print all sheets in a workbook, except one specific sheet? For example, you may want to print all sheets except the one named “Total”. In this guide, we’ll walk you through two methods for quickly excluding a sheet from your printout.

Print all sheet except one with VBA

Here is a VBA code that can print all sheets except one specific sheet.

1. Activate the workbook you want to print the sheets from, and press Alt + F11 keys to open the Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications window.

2. Click Insert > Module, paste below code to the Module script.

VBA: Print Sheet except one

Sub printsheets()
'UpdatebyExtendoffice20161031
 Dim xWs As Worksheet
 Application.ScreenUpdating = False
 For Each xWs In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
  If xWs.Visible = True Then
   If xWs.Name <> "Total" Then
       With xWs.PageSetup
        .PrintArea = "A1:B15" ' USE YOUR PRINTAREA
        .Zoom = False
        .FitToPagesTall = 1
        .FitToPagesWide = 1
       End With
       xWs.PrintOut
   End If
  End If
 Next xWs
 Application.ScreenUpdating = False
 MsgBox "Sheet “Total” has not been printed", vbInformation, "Kutools for Excel"
End Sub

Note: In the code, the Total in If xWs.Name <> "Total" Then and MsgBox "Sheet Total have not been printed" is the sheet name you do not want to print, and A1:B15 in .PrintArea = "A1:B15" is the range you want to print of each sheet. You can change them as you need.

3. Press F5 key to run the code, and then a dialog pops out to remind you that the specific sheet has not been printed. See screenshot:
