Printing from Excel

  • Has anyone figured out a way to get Excel to print on one page all the time? I had some success setting the printer properties to "Scale to Fit 8 1/2 X 11" prior to printing but my current spreadsheet is a whole 5 columns and the printer setting did not seem to help at all. I ended up with a spreadsheet covering 12 pages yet if I create a table in Word and type the data in I can fit it on one page. I can't imagine that there isn't a setting somewhere in Excel to print more than 20 rows on one page as a default.

  • I'm running Excel 2013.

    When I go to Print I see a lot of settings. The bottom one is Scaling. There's various options of 'fit on one page'.

  • Marie nailed it. The "fit to page" really works well. You can also set your margins. If you're finding a lot of blank space on the printed spreadsheet, you might need to adjust your print area as well.
