      • Paper Size (e.g., Letter, A4).
      • Margins (Normal, Narrow, etc.).
      • Scaling (e.g., Fit Sheet on One Page, Fit All Columns on One Page).
  4. Preview:
    • On the right, you’ll see a print preview of how your worksheet will look.
    • Make sure everything appears as expected, and adjust settings if needed.
