Sorry, I didn't read your question carefully enough. :-(
The article I referred to doesn't answer that question.

You probably have to intercept the FilePrintPreview command; the
following code seems to be working:
ActiveWindow.View.Type = wdPrintPreview
ActiveWindow.View.Zoom.Percentage = 100
(If you want some other percentage than 100, use that value instead!)
For general information about intercepting Word's built-in commands,

Generally speaking, Print Preview opens at the Zoom ratio last used (even
when you don't want it to). Only if you try to compel it to use a specific
Zoom does it seem to get balky. <sigh>

Or to make sure that the Print Preview toolbar button acts like a
toggle, try the following code:
Sub FilePrintPreview()
If Application.PrintPreview Then
ActiveDocument.ClosePrintPreview
Else
ActiveWindow.View.Type = wdPrintPreview
ActiveWindow.View.Zoom = 100 'Or your desired value
End If
End Sub
toggle, try the following code:
Sub FilePrintPreview()
If Application.PrintPreview Then
ActiveDocument.ClosePrintPreview
Else
ActiveWindow.View.Type = wdPrintPreview
ActiveWindow.View.Zoom = 100 'Or your desired value
End If
End Sub

Yes, annoying, isn't it? I'm hoping that my little macro should make
it possible to set a specific zoom level!
