Major problem with WORD 2010. In the real world we use Office to write letters and print them. Previously 99% of the time one would use the quick print button to (quickly) print one straight copy of the open document on the default printer. Ifone wanted more than one copy, control P and the mejhu opens with the default option being the number of copies.

Hi Webb, When using Quick Print, it is recommended that you install the latest Office update on your computer. To make sure that it is updated, we recommend that you follow this link about how to install Office updates to check if this will help to use a Quick Print feature again. If you still encounter the same concern, we recommend that you repair your Office application to scan and repair. Quick Print 1.0.10 - Print selected Finder items without opening native applications. Download the latest versions of the best Mac apps at safe and trusted MacUpdate.
So press 3 and enter and 3 copies print.NOW in WORD2010 which does have many clever intuitive improvements over earlier versions the print opttion has been messed around with to such an extent that if there is no update I am reverting to WORD 2007.All those clever programmers at Microsoft are out of touch with the real world. I use Excel 2010 more than Word, but have the same problem. In Excel, Quick Print prints using the same printer and count as my last job.
Because I switch between a black and white laser printer near my desk and a color printer down the hall, it's extremelyannoying. Quick Print should print one copy to the default printer ONLY. If I go to Print (instead of Quick Print) and reset the printer and the number of copies, I can get what I want, but then, why have Quick Print? It's a real disaster,as are many other 'improvements' in Office 2010. If I could go back, I would, but I'm in a corporate environment, so I'm stuck with it.

Come on Microsoft - this is just crap design.
If you print three copies with the file/print/print button then the quick print button will then also print three copies from then on. This I can take, but if you then go into file/print again, change the numberof copies to one, but don't actually press the print button, the number of copies to be printed shows as one, but the quick print button will still keep printing three.
You can only commit the change by pressing the print button.So, the quick print button will ALWAYS print the same number of copies as you LAST PRINTED - NOT what the number of copies TO BE PRINTED says.Just RUBBISH DESIGN.Please fix this guys.
