Excel offers multiple features and techniques that enable users to prepare and print documents quickly and easily. Step-by-step, Excel expert David Ringstrom, CPA, demonstrates how to enable a full-screen print preview, use Excel’s Custom Views feature to apply different print settings, pick and choose worksheets you want to print, and more. David’s helpful tips will help you work faster and more efficiently in Excel.

David demonstrates every technique at least twice: first, on a PowerPoint slide with numbered steps, and second, in Excel 2016. He draws your attention to any differences in Excel 2013, 2010, or 2007 during the presentation as well as in his detailed handouts. David also provides an Excel workbook that includes most of the examples he uses during the webcast.
