You can also use page breaks to divide your worksheet into separate pages for printing. While Excel does add page breaks automatically (indicated by a dashed line), you can also insert, move, or delete page breaks in a worksheet.

If you only need to print a section of your worksheet, you can set or clear a print area on a worksheet.

This feature is not available in Excel for the web.

If you have the Excel desktop application, you can use the Open in Excel button to open the workbook and scale the worksheet to fit data on one page.
