3. Highlight 'Print' and then select 'Print Preview.' You will see the document on the screen.
4. Look at the options on the Ribbon now that you are in the 'Preview' mode. You can change margin size, page orientation, change print options and select many other print functions while in the 'Preview' mode.
5. Leave the 'Preview' mode by 'clicking' on 'Close Print Preview.'
Using the Print Function
