You can use Document.PrintPreview http://msdn.microsoft.com/fr-fr/library/microsoft.office.interop.word._document.printpreview(VS.80).aspx Here is sample code private void button1_Click( object sender EventArgs e) { Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word. Application wordApp = new Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word. Application (); object fileName = @C:\KSK\ASPNet.doc ; object confirmConversions = Type .Missing; object readOnly = true ; object addToRecentFiles = Type .Missing; object passwordDoc = Type .Missing; object passwordTemplate = Type .Missing; object revert = Type .Missing; object writepwdoc = Type .Missing; object writepwTemplate = Type .Missing; object format = Type .Missing; object encoding = Type .Missing; object visible = Type .Missing; object openRepair = Type .Missing; object docDirection = Type .Missing; object notEncoding = Type .Missing; object xmlTransform = Type .Missing; Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word. Document doc = wordApp.Documents.Open( ref fileName ref confirmConversions ref readOnly ref addToRecentFiles ref passwordDoc ref passwordTemplate ref revert ref writepwdoc ref writepwTemplate ref format ref encoding ref visible ref openRepair ref docDirection ref notEncoding ref xmlTransform); wordApp.Visible = true ; doc.PrintPreview(); } Hope this helps

Hi! You can not do that from thr Print Icon since it print directly. What you have to do is go to File menu and and Click Print function and you will be prompted to a small window and in the Page Range section you can put whatever number of print you want. For example if you want to print 1 and 5 then write 15 That's it. If you like answer please click on the accept answer
