Collaborating and Finishing Your Presentation in Microsoft PowerPoint 2013
- 4/15/2013
Printing presentation materials
For presentations you’ll be giving in person, you might want to prepare and print handouts your audience members can take home when your slide show is done. You can print your handouts in a number of ways, printing multiple slides on each page, printing slides and notes, or printing one slide per page, if that’s your preference. You’ll use the Print category in the Backstage view to get the job done.
Print slides
Save the presentation that you want to print and tap File to display the Backstage view.
Tap the Print tab.
Choose the printer that you want to use.
Choose which slides that you want to print.
Alternatively, enter the range of slides that you want to print (for example, 4–5).
If you’re printing multiple copies of your slides, choose how (or whether) you want the pages to be collated, so different sets are arranged together on one set.
Select whether you want to print the slides in color, grayscale, or black and white.
Preview your slides in the print preview area.
Browse through the various slides.
Change the size of the previewed slide.
Scroll through the presentation.
Tap Print to send the slides to the printer.
