SYMPTOMS
When you click the Print button on the Standard toolbar, the Print dialog box is displayed (instead of your document being printed using the default printer settings).
WORKAROUND
Microsoft provides programming examples for illustration only, without warranty either expressed or implied.

This article assumes that you are familiar with the programming language that is being demonstrated and with the tools that are used to create and to debug procedures. Microsoft support engineers can help explain the functionality of a particular procedure, but they will not modify these examples to provide added functionality or construct procedures to meet your specific requirements.

To work around this problem, you can create a macro to print your document without displaying the Print dialog box. You can then assign the macro to a toolbar button.
The following macro prints the active document using the default printer Values:
Sub DefPrint()
ActiveDocument.PrintOut
End Sub
For more information about adding macros to toolbars, menus, or keystrokes: from the Visual Basic Editor, click the Office Assistant, type "add toolbar keyboard menu command," click Search, and then click to view the appropriate topic.
