How to Print Specific Pages in Word (Page Numbers or Page Ranges)

AuthorZhoumandyLast modified

Sometimes you don’t need to print an entire document. Instead, you may only want to print specific pages in Word, such as page 2, page 5, or a range like pages 10–15. This is useful when reviewing drafts, printing selected sections, or avoiding unnecessary pages.

In this guide, you will learn two effective ways to print specific pages in Word:

  • Use Word’s built-in print settings
  • Batch print custom pages from multiple documents with Kutools for Word

Print Specific Pages in Word

💡 Quick Navigation:

Method 1: Print Specific Pages in Word Using the Built-in Print Settings

Microsoft Word includes a simple option that allows you to print page numbers or page ranges directly from the Print settings.

  1. Open your document in Microsoft Word.
  2. Click File > Print.
  3. On the Print page, do the following:
    1. ① Select Custom Print.
    2. ② Enter the pages you want to print in the Pages field, for example 1, 3, 5-8.
    3. ③ Select your printer.
    4. ④ Click Print.
      On the Print page

Result: Word will print only the specified pages (such as 1, 3, and 5–8) instead of the entire document.

Pros
  • Built into Word: Works directly in Microsoft Word without extra tools.
  • No installation required: Uses the standard Print settings already available.
  • Simple for occasional use: Suitable when you only need to print specific pages once in a while.
Cons
  • Manual entry required: Page numbers must be typed each time you print.
  • Not ideal for multiple files: Each document must be opened and printed separately.
  • Limited automation: Repetitive printing tasks can become time-consuming.

Method 2: Batch Print Specific Pages from Multiple Documents Using Kutools

If you frequently print specific pages, Kutools for Word offers a much faster solution. Its Batch Printing feature allows you to print custom page ranges from multiple Word documents at once.

After downloading and installing Kutools for Word from the official website, do the following:

  1. Open Microsoft Word. And click Kutools Plus >Batch Printing.
    Batch Printing
  2. In the Batch Printing dialog, do the following:
    1. ① Click Add Files or Add Folders to import the documents you want to print.
    2. ② Under Print Range, select Custom Range. Then enter the page numbers or page ranges you want, for example 1,3,5-8.
    3. ③ Click Print.
      In the Batch Printing dialog

Result: Kutools automatically prints the specified pages (for example 1, 2, 5–8) from all selected documents at once using the default printer set in Word.

  • Much faster for repetitive printing tasks

  • No need to open and print documents one by one
