Excel won't print more than one copy

Friends,

I just downloaded MS Office 365 for Mac. Excel will not let me print more than one copy of a spreadsheet. I spent time on the phone with Canon trying to resolve the issue (I have Canon printers). It is not a Canon issue (they said). Note: I can print as many copies as I want from Word documents. Also, I had no issue with printing multiple copies from Excel Office 2016 for Mac on my older MacBook. The issue seems to be with 365.

On another note: Word 365 messed up a nearly 300 page document I opened from Office 2016. The pagination (formatting or something) is all different. Which, wouldn't be a problem, except that I'm still printing section by section as we go through it and now the page numbers don't align). Though, I can print as many copies as I want, even from this document - just not from Excel.

    Thank you, will do. Though I would really like a direct resolve for the issue. I will let users know they can try the work around of printing to .pdf and then to print copies.

    The way to tell Microsoft of this issue is to use the Menu Bar and choose Help > Feedback > I Don't Like Something.

    The files I used, while on my own system, were all freshly created, and with just the word: test on it.

    I can see that it all seem's to boil down to something with Microsoft Office: Excel for Mac, sadly.

    I've used the MS Feedback many times for this problem going back at least 3-4 years. It obviously hasn't done any good. It really bothers me as a retired printing expert for a major international company. If this had happed in Windows while I was still employed, our CIO would have been on the phone to Steve Balmer and it would be fixed in days--not years.
