expression**.PrintOut(From**, To, PrintToFile, Copies, Collate)

*expression   * Required. An expression that returns a Presentation object.

From    Optional Integer. The number of the first page to be printed. If this argument is omitted, printing starts at the beginning of the presentation. Specifying the To and From arguments sets the contents of the PrintRanges object and sets the value of the RangeType property for the presentation.

To    Optional Integer. The number of the last page to be printed. If this argument is omitted, printing continues to the end of the presentation. Specifying the To and From arguments sets the contents of the PrintRanges object and sets the value of the RangeType property for the presentation.

PrintToFile    Optional String. The name of the file to print to. If you specify this argument, the file is printed to a file rather than sent to a printer. If this argument is omitted, the file is sent to a printer.

Copies    Optional Integer. The number of copies to be printed. If this argument is omitted, only one copy is printed. Specifying this argument sets the value of the NumberOfCopies property.

Example

This example prints two uncollated copies of each slide — whether visible or hidden — from slide two to slide five in the active presentation.

With Application.ActivePresentation
    .PrintOptions.PrintHiddenSlides = True
    .PrintOut From:=2, To:=5, Copies:=2, Collate:=msoFalse
End With

This example prints a single copy of all slides in the active presentation to the file Testprnt.prn.

Application.ActivePresentation.PrintOut _
    PrintToFile:="TestPrnt"
