We occasionally need to print exported files or files that we have received from others. In that case, we may face difficulties with print titles that come as Title, Header, or Row and Column Headers. We have a sample dataset containing these 3 issues.
How to Remove the Titles from Print in Excel: 3 Ways
Method 1 – Remove the Print Titles Using Page Setup
When we try to print our file we see that Sale ID, Category, Product, Quantity, Unit Price, and Total Price, these titles appear every time.
This is the first page of the worksheet and contains the title.
When we go to the next page, the same title appears.
We want this title to appear only on our first page.
Steps:
- Go to PAGE LAYOUT and click Print Titles.
- A dialog box will pop up and we can see $2:$2 in the Rows to repeat at top box.
- Remove this row reference and click OK.
- Press Ctrl + P and we can see no print title on page 2.
