    On Error Resume Next

    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    For i = 0 To UBound(vLeft)
        With ws.PageSetup
        .PrintArea = xRg(i)
        .LeftHeader = vLeft(i)
        End With
        ws.PrintPreview
    Next i
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True

2. And specify the print area of each page in current worksheet in the piece of code “xRg = Array("A1:C50", "A51:C100", "A101:C150", "A151:C200")”.
3. For applying different footers, please replace the word “Header” in the code with “Footer”.

Note: If there are 4 specified printed pages in worksheet, you need to click the Print button four times to finish the whole printing.
