641240 2008-02-17 22:26:00 Hi,

I have got a Canon MP520, and when I want to print a certain number of pages, such as the first page only, I don't have the option to do this (when using 'Print' in Outlook 2007). What I can do is print either All, Even, or Odd.

Where can I tell it to only print Page #1? I can see in Word's 'Print' that I do have this option when printing documents there.

I want this option in Outlook because some emails are full of rubbish (such as e-tickets where only the 1st page (with flight # and reference #) is required for check in) and I don't want to waste paper by having to print the rest of it with all the terms & conditions.

Thanks
Catherine

I just checked that myself and can't believe it! There must be a way around it...I will have a look. I don't think it's like that in Outlook 2003.

Edit - I was wrong - Damn Microsoft. :D

You could always copy it into a Word document and delete the second page.

Outlook 2007 uses the Outlook print options for everything - Outlook 2003
used word's and IE's for some messages. The only workaround is opening HTML
messages in the browser and printing.

So either that or copy it into a Word document.

Got that info from here.

Might be worth a read.

641243 2008-02-18 00:29:00 Thanks for the replies, I tried opening the email in a browser, and yup I can specify what pages to print .

Downloading the Blueprint software now that Safari recommended, and will give that a try (it's only a free trial, bummer!)

So looks like the easiest option for now will have to be opening emails in a browser .

I agree it's silly that Microsoft have done this!

That is strange, questioning it is good though...this is what mine looks like...

I wonder if it's a driver type issue.
