create print macro in powerpoint 2007

[Julie]

Trying to create a print macro for PowerPoint 2007.
File Print.
Select "certain printer"
Properties: Layout Watermark Tab
Page Layout: 2 pages per sheet, ok
Print What: Slides
Check: Frame Slides
Press OK.

This is for a certain print style I do for someone at work. It would save me
time to create a macro but the record macro is no longer available. Do not
know how to use VB. Thank you.

Here is a macro that should help you get started:

Sub PrintActivePresentation()
With ActivePresentation
' File Print.
' >> Properties: Layout Watermark Tab
' >> Page Layout: 2 pages per sheet, ok
' You need to set the above 2 lines as default
' in your printer settings as they are
' printer-specific and PowerPoint doesn't
' know about them.
With .PrintOptions
' Select "certain printer"
.ActivePrinter = "certain printer"
' Print What: Slides
.OutputType = ppPrintOutputSlides
' Check: Frame Slides
.FrameSlides = True
End With
' Press OK.
.PrintOut
End With
End Sub
