Word 2007 provides plenty of options for printing your document. For example, you can opt not to print colored backgrounds and images. Or, you can print your document in draft quality or in duplex, if your printer supports it. This can add up to big savings on ink and paper.

Unfortunately, though, not all of Word's printing options are immediately accessible. You'll need to do some searching to find all of the printing options in word 2007.
Print

Print is just like the print of good old Word 2003 days. Clicking on Print will display the print dialog box, where you can select things like the printer, the number of copies, and what pages you want to print. Once you have selected your options click OK, and Word will send the document to the printer.

You can access printing options when you print your document. Press CTRL + P to open the Print dialog box. Click Options button in the bottom left corner of the dialog box. This opens the Word Options dialog box.

If you want more options, you'll need to open the Advanced section of the Word Options box. Then, scroll down to Print.

Quick Print

Quick Print will print one copy of the document with the default printing settings - so if you have more than one printer set up on your computer, it will print to the one you have marked as default.

You can set options for print order, duplex printing and also print quality. When you're done, click OK. The options you select will be kept until you change them again.

Print Preview
Print Preview will display how the document would look if you were to print it on paper, allowing you to check its presentation and layout. To do this Word zooms out just enough to get the whole page in its workspace.
