Printing your work
Microsoft
®
Word file. Creating your own extension is usually
unwise, since the program is unlikely to recognize a strange
extension and may refuse to handle your file correctly.
TECHNICAL NOTE: By default, the Windows
®
operating system does
not show file extensions. For information on showing or hiding file
extensions, see your Windows
®
online Help.
Printing your work
Ensure the operating system is set up for your printer as described
in “Setting up a printer” on page 82.
HINT: You only need to set up the printer the first time you connect it.
If you use more than one printer or are changing printers, you will
need to set up the Windows
®
operating system to run with the
additional printer(s).
To print a file:
1 If your printer is not on, turn it on now.
2 Click on the arrow in the upper-left corner of your
Windows
®
-based application to display the drop-down menu,
and then click Print.
The program displays a Print dialog box.
