The Print command can be invoked 3 ways:
No matter how you do this, the KDE print dialog will appear.
The top drop down box labeled Name shows the currently selected printer. To configure this printer click on the Properties button.
To select a different printer, click on the dropdown box and select the desired printer.
If you want to print your output into a postscript file, select Print to File. You can now use the Browse button to locate the files destination. As an alternative, you can enter the absolute path and filename for your new file.
Under Page Selection, you can select either to print the whole document (the default), print the page the cursor is located on, or print a range of pages. If you select the Print Range option, you will be given the opportunity to select your start and end pages in the text boxe provided.
In the box in the lower right, you should set the number of copies you want printed. You can either enter the number directly into the box, or use the arrows to adjust the number. KWord can print a maximum of 9999 copies at once.
You can have KDE collate your documents by clicking on the Collate check box. If selected, KDE will print all of the pages for copy 1, then print all the pages for copy 2, etc. If not selected, KDE will print all of the copies of the first page, then all of the copies of the second page, etc.
You can also determine if the document is printed in forward order (print first page first), or reverse order (print last page first).
Just above the OK you can tell KDE to print the Even pages, the Odd pages or All pages.
When you are satisfied with your selections, you can click OK to print.
If you click on Cancel, the printing will be aborted.
