Choose Finish & Merge→Print Documents.

A dialog box appears, from which you can choose records to print. Choose whichever records you need to print.

Choose All from the Merge to Printer dialog box to print the entire document.

Choose All from the Merge to Printer dialog box to print the entire document.

If you don’t want to print the entire document, you can specify which records to print.

Click OK.

Click OK.

The traditional Print dialog box appears. Hopefully you’re familiar with how this works.

Click the OK button to print your documents.

Click the OK button to print your documents.

Your documents will be sent to the printer.

Save and close your document.

Make sure you have saved your document for any further printing needs.

About the book author:

Dan Gookin has been writing about technology for 20 years. He has contributed articles to numerous high-tech magazines and written more than 90 books about personal computing technology, many of them accurate.
He combines his love of writing with his interest in technology to create books that are informative and entertaining, but not boring. Having sold more than 14 million titles translated into more than 30 languages, Dan can attest that his method of crafting computer tomes does seem to work.
Perhaps Dan’s most famous title is the original DOS For Dummies, published in 1991. It became the world’s fastest-selling computer book, at one time moving more copies per week than the New York Times number-one best seller (although, because it’s a reference book, it could not be listed on the NYT best seller list). That book spawned the entire line of For Dummies books, which remains a publishing phenomenon to this day.
Dan’s most recent titles include PCs For Dummies, 9th Edition; Buying a Computer For Dummies, 2005 Edition; Troubleshooting Your PC For Dummies; Dan Gookin’s Naked Windows XP; and Dan Gookin’s Naked Office. He publishes a free weekly computer newsletter, “Weekly Wambooli Salad,” and also maintains the vast and helpful Web site www.wambooli.com.
