If you’re spending too much money on printer ink, you can greatly reduce your ink consumption by printing some documents with two pages on a single sheet of paper. This is a great option for printing documents for personal use, for printing class assignments or for making small fliers. Just follow these steps to set up Microsoft Word for two-page printing on a single sheet.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

  • Computer with Microsoft Word installed
  • Computer printer
  • Printer paper

Step1
Launch Microsoft Word and open a new document.
Step2
Click the File menu and select Page Setup.
Step3
Look for the Multiple Pages option on the Margins tab. Set the option to 2 Pages Per Sheet and click the OK button.
Step4
Your page will be automatically formatted as though there are two separate pages on a single landscape sheet of paper. If your type appears too small to read, use the Zoom options within the View menu to get a closer look. Before printing, check your text formatting by using the Print Preview option within the File menu.

Tips & Warnings

  • To reverse this formatting, just return to the Page Setup window and set the Multiple Pages option back to Normal.
