How to batch print the last page of multiple Word documents

In many cases, you may only need the last page of a Word document, such as a signature page or final summary. Unfortunately, Word doesn’t support batch printing just the last page by default. The good news is that there are two workable ways to get this done.

• Method 1: Batch print last pages with Kutools for Word
• Method 2: Batch print last pages using a VBA macro

Batch print the last page of each document using Kutools

Kutools for Word includes a dedicated Batch Printing feature that makes it easy to apply the same print rule to many documents at once. In this case, you can print only the last page of each document without opening files one by one. You can work with individual files or entire folders (including subfolders).

1. Open Word. On the ribbon, click Kutools Plus > Batch Printing.

   

2. In the Print Specific Pages window, do the following:
   1. Add the documents you want to print:
      • Click Add Files to choose specific Word documents.
      • Or click Add Folder to include all documents in a folder and its subfolders.
   2. Select Last page under the Print Range section.
   3. Click Print.

      

      Tips:

      • Other options in the Print Range let you print the first page, all pages, odd or even pages, or a custom page range across all documents.
      • Enable Print in reverse order to change the page output order, which can help keep printed pages arranged correctly.

After the batch finishes, Kutools for Word displays a summary window showing how many documents were printed successfully.

Batch print the last page of each document with VBA

If you want a built-in solution without relying on add-ins, you can use a VBA macro to print only the last page of each Word document in a folder. This approach requires some setup, but once it’s in place, the same macro can be reused whenever needed.

1. In a new or separate Word document that you do not plan to print, press Alt + F11 to open the VBA editor.
2. Click Insert > Module.

   

3. Paste the macro below into the Module window, then replace C:\YourFolder\ with the path to your own folder.

   Sub BatchPrintLastPage()
       Dim folderPath As String
       Dim fileName As String
       Dim doc As Document
       Dim lastPage As Long
   
       ' Set your folder path here (must end with a backslash)
       folderPath = "C:\YourFolder\"
       
       If Right(folderPath, 1) <> "\" Then folderPath = folderPath & "\"
   
       fileName = Dir(folderPath & "*.doc*")
   
       Application.ScreenUpdating = False
   
       Do While fileName <> ""
           Set doc = Documents.Open( _
               fileName:=folderPath & fileName, _
               ReadOnly:=True, _
               AddToRecentFiles:=False _
           )
   
           doc.Repaginate
           lastPage = doc.ComputeStatistics(wdStatisticPages)
   
           doc.PrintOut Range:=wdPrintRangeOfPages, Pages:=CStr(lastPage), Background:=False
   
           doc.Close SaveChanges:=wdDoNotSaveChanges
           fileName = Dir()
       Loop
   
       Application.ScreenUpdating = True
   End Sub
   

4. Press F5 to run the macro.

The macro prints only the last page of each Word document in the specified folder. Documents stored in subfolders are not included.

Conclusion

Printing only the last page of multiple Word documents isn’t something Word supports out of the box. If you want a quick and visual solution, Kutools Batch Printing is the easiest and most reliable option. If you prefer a built-in approach and don’t mind some setup, a VBA macro can handle the task and be reused whenever the same workflow is needed.
