Word not printing custom range

[jojo6565]

I have recently uploaded windows 11 and now my custom print range will not work on Word. 

I have tried driver updates it says I have the most up to date compatible driver but the issue still isn't resolved.

Any advice would be great I only need to print 5 pages from a 48 page document!

Welcome to the HP Community.

If you have not done so, you likely need to uninstall / restart the computer / install a fresh copy of the full driver printer software.  Printer software rarely survives an upgrade (change) of the version of Windows.

As a way to move forward:

Export the Word document to a PDF file.

Print the PDF file using HP Smart or Adobe Reader DC

Print PDF File

Example - Adobe Reader DC  - Main Print Menu

Open document in Reader DC

Click the print icon...

Adjust the settings on the main menu

Click Properties to select the Shortcut and add the paper size

Click OK to save the changes and exit the Properties menu

Back on the main print menu, when ready, click Print

Examples

Example 1 - HP Smart Windows - Simple Document Print - Page Range

HP_Smart_W10_PDF_Print_8

Example -  Adobe Reader DC  - PDF Print - Main Menu - Pages to Print > Pages

PDF_Reader_Main_Menu_2

If you have not done so,

Reinstall / Update your PDF Reader (Adobe Reader DC /Optional  Foxit Reader)

HINT:  Watch out for and UNCHECK unwanted extra software

NOTE:  Adobe Reader DC software can be installed even if you do not normally open / view / print PDF files directly from the Adobe Reader DC software.
