Any idea how to change the print page layout in MS Word with PowerShell? Let's say for example I want to setup the document to print with Letterhead and plain paper or simply switch the duplex printing (one side or both sides) (pardon the french display ;-)) :
I know how to create the document and all but not how to adjust these printing preferences.
Basically I need to know how to set these properties, the final script would be something like :
$Word = New-Object -ComObject Word.Application
$Document = $Word.Documents.Add()
$Selection = $Word.Selection
$Selection.TypeText("Testing")
#SET PRINT LAYOUT OPTIONS HERE, WHICH I DON'T KNOW HOW :)
$File = 'C:\temp\test.docx'
$Document.SaveAs([ref]$File,[ref]$SaveFormat::wdFormatDocument)
$word.Quit()
I can't test it yet, but had the same question and hopefully now the answer:
With $PrinterSettings = new-object System.Drawing.Printing.PrinterSettings
you can see most of the (default) printer settings. $PrinterSettings.CanDuplex
to check if your printer supports Duplex.
$DefaultPrinter = Get-WmiObject -Query " SELECT * FROM Win32_Printer WHERE Default=$true" | Select -Expand Name
Set-PrintConfiguration $DefaultPrinter -DuplexingMode TwoSidedLongEdge -PaperSize Letterhead
That should do the Job.
You can also do:
$PrinterSettings = Get-PrintConfiguration -PrinterName "Microsoft XPS Document Writer"
$PrinterSettings.DuplexingMode = "TwoSidedLongEdge"
$PrinterSettings.PaperSize = "Letterhead"
For more info about the options: Set-PrintConfiguration
DuplexingMode options:
OneSided
TwoSidedLongEdge
TwoSidedShortEdge
