How to open a blank sheet for printing

Instruction manual

First, make sure that Microsoft Word is installed on your computer. To do this, look for a shortcut with the same name on the desktop or look at the Start menu, the Programs section. Launch the found application by double-clicking on its shortcut. The application that opens is the Microsoft Word text editor.

Pay attention to the central white sheet. This is the main workspace in which you will print text. In the right part of the window you will see the so-called scroll bar. It will be needed when the size of your text will no longer fit on one screen. To start typing, click on the sheet. Word will display the active flashing cursor and place it at the very beginning of the document.

Now check which language is currently active on your computer. The text editor will print the text in this language. If English is active, left-click on its icon and select Russian in the menu that appears.

Type a few lines of text using the keyboard. If you don’t know what to type, open any book or magazine and reprint a few paragraphs from there. To move to another line, use the Enter key. You will see the blinking cursor move to the next line. If you make a mistake, delete the wrong text using the Backspace key and retype the word.

And what to do if you accidentally deleted the desired text or did some other unnecessary action. To do this, Word provides the undo function of the last action. To use the function, click the arrow button in the upper left corner of the window.

So the text is printed. It remains only to save it. To do this, click in the upper left corner the button of the main menu and select "Save". In the window that opens, enter the name of the saved document and select the folder to save. Click the "Save" button. You have just created a text file in Microsoft Word.

note

In the previous lesson, we talked about the fact that there is a special multifunctional program Microsoft Word for printing text on a computer. Try typing small text. If it is difficult for you to invent it yourself, open any book and print a small piece of text from it. Looking ahead, I’ll say that to go to another line (to print the text below), you need to press the Enter button on the keyboard.

Helpful advice

Now try typing something using the keyboard. But first, look what alphabet is installed on the computer. The bottom right shows the alphabet that is selected on the computer. To change the alphabet, left-click on these two letters and select the desired language from the list. Try typing small text. If it is difficult for you to invent it yourself, open any book and print a small piece of text from it.

How to print text on a computer  - I think you will ask this question almost immediately after acquiring a new electronic friend - a laptop (or computer). Typing is really one of the most sought after features for both beginners and advanced users. But you can’t just lift the lid of the laptop, turn it on and start typing. Where is the text typed? Certainly not on the desktop. The developers took care of this in the first place and created, one might say, a program unique in its versatility, which by default (you do not need to search and download it) is already offered for free, which is called bundled with your Windows operating system.

So, please love and favor - Microsoft Office Word.

This is really a very powerful program in terms of functionality, allowing you to not only print text by selecting the font, its color, size and location of paragraphs, but also even insert an edited picture, photo, draw a frame, put page numbers, etc. The program includes the ability to execute 1964 commands. Of course, all the teams are likely to know only the creators of this unique editor. We will consider the main functions that may be useful to us more often than others.

So,

We will start from the very beginning, i.e. since starting Word.

For more information about launching programs, see the article How to run programs.

We go in Start menu those. press the button on the keyboard with the icon Windows   or click on the button Start on . (You can see the appearance of these buttons in the article).

A list of programs that are included in the Microsoft Office suite opens. We choose the one that interests us

Some systems have a version of Starter installed, which is a simplified version. It has almost all the basic functions. We will consider Microsoft Office Word version 2007. I consider it as convenient as possible, but you should choose it.

I propose immediately transfer the program shortcut to the desktop (this will subsequently be much faster).

To do this, move the mouse cursor over the found line   and, pressing the right mouse button, drag the cursor to the free field of the desktop. A window appears.

Click on Create shortcuts . That's it, now on the desktop there will always be a shortcut to quickly enter a text editor.

So, with a double click, we start Word. The program window opens. Consider the window elements of this program.


The program window is very similar to an ordinary A4 paper sheet. A blinking cursor indicates where the text you are typing appears. If you need to start from some other place, you just need to click on this section, and the cursor will change the location to the desired one.

Due to the lack of space on the screen, we can only see a certain section of our sheet. To move the sheet, you can use the scroller by controlling it with the left mouse button, or by clicking on the “up” or “down” buttons. After printing starts, the program will automatically shift the sheet for a better overview and will independently move to the next one if the lack of space requires it.

And that's all for today.

We figured out how to print text on a computer using a text editor, and in the next article , we have to go directly to typing, choose the size and style of letters, learn how to select text and change the language of typing.

Waiting for your comments.

Instruction manual

The Windows operating system, which is ubiquitous, by default offers users two main programs for printing text: WordPad and Notepad. Both of them allow you to type text on a computer and print it on a printer, differing only in their functionality. To find these programs, open the main menu on the desktop: “Start” -\u003e “All Programs” -\u003e “Accessories” -\u003e WordPad or “Notepad”.

Opening the program, you will see a window with an empty white field. This is your electronic sheet on which you will print the text. The menu buttons located at the top of the program window allow you to correct and edit it: erase unnecessary letters, cut out fragments, select individual phrases, etc.

To configure for manual printing, you need to click the "File" menu - select "Print".

After each operation, you must click the "OK" button.

In our information age on the Internet, it would seem, you can find any information, get an answer to any question and download instructions for anything. But the simple question of printing photos without frames is completely unresolved. Many of us, wanting to print a 10X15 photo, used various programs that came bundled with the printer or downloaded third-party programs, but always faced the same problem - the problem of choice (or print a full, cropped photo, but with a frame, the indentation is approximately 5 mm from the edge of the paper, or the entire width, but the photo is cropped). There is a solution.

Instruction manual

Select a photo, right-click on it and click "Print".

Select the printer that prints your photos, and then click the "Printing Preferences" button. Select paper size A6 or 10X15, or 4X6 (depending on printer drivers). Manually adjust the paper size 2mm smaller on each edge. That is, the paper size you should get 98X148mm.

Next, close the window by clicking the "OK" button. In a previously opened window, click Next. In the new window, select “Photo Print Full Page” - “Next”. And here they are beautiful, full-size photos without frames!

note

Foreign printer manufacturers calculate the paper size as 4X6 (in inches). And, as you know, the English inch is 2.54 cm. Accordingly, it turns out that the size is 4X6 (in inches) \u003d 10.16X15.24 cm or, if rounded, 10.2X 15.2 cm. To the expanses of the former USSR, the metric standard has been and still is today, and all photo paper is produced in 10X15 format, which clearly corresponds to 100X150mm. That is why borderless photos are slightly cropped.

One of the interesting and attractive features of many printers is the ability to print texts and images on the surface of discs. The most popular printers that support printing on discs are the models of the manufacturer Epson (for example, Stylus Photo T50, R220 or R320) and Canon (PIXMA iP4200, PIXMA iP5000). A kit with such printers is supplied with a disk with a special program that helps to develop disk design and print the image.
