Hello,

I would like to print just the selection of a table in a Word document, but it is grayed out and I don't know why.

I have a Canon MG5650 printer

    Hello,

    This means that your table is poorly selected.
    To select it properly, click on the four small arrows located at the top left of the table that you see when you hover over it, or use the button on the ribbon Select => Select Table.
    But you must have dragged the mouse over the cells.

      Actually, I printed this file [url=https://www.noelshack.com/2019-38-5-1568991548-test3.png][img]https://image.noelshack.com/minis/2019/38/5/1568991548-test3.png[/img][/url] blank with nothing on it.

      And I would just like to add the number, licenses, and names of the players and print it on the already printed page so that I don't have to reprint new sheets.

      I can't see much because your image is tiny, but in any case, your idea is not a good one. Indeed, selective printing will not position the table in the right place.

      I can only see one solution: you should insert large white squares on your text, and print it normally.

      With all the options we have nowadays, I don’t know how to print the selection via the table... I find it a shame.

      Thanks for the help but I can’t manage with big white squares; when I print by changing the color of the lines, it moves the text, whereas when I print simply with the text, nothing changes...

      I don’t understand anything anymore but thanks again for the help.

      You can print the table by itself... the problem is that Word will not take its position into account. If you just want to print a table, there’s no reason for the table to be at the bottom of the page, for example.
      The same goes if you hide everything. The hidden text will not be printed, but the space it occupies will not either.

      Putting white squares is not very complicated. You just need to have an arrangement OVER the text.
