I have a MacBook Pro and I am trying to Set a Print Area in Apple Numbers, but when I select the cells i want to print, and then select 'File' I don't seem to have a 'Print area' option to select, or a 'Set Print Area' option to select in the drop-down menu. I have the latest OS software installed.

Launch Preview.
Choose File > New from clipboard.
Press command-P or go File > Print.
When item has been printed,
Quit Preview.
Choose Don't Save.

This did indeed get me to where i wanted to be, but it does seem to be the long way round.
The wider internet community suggests that you should be able to do it through the Numbers File drop-down area by selecting 'Set/Select Print Area', but there is no visible listing for 'Set or Select Print Area'
Anyway, thank you most sincerely for taking the time to respond to my Q.
That's exactly the way you would do it in Excel (not Numbers). It may seem like the "long way around" but actually the sequence Barry describes is just as efficient. The only difference is that it involves a separate app, Preview, whereas in Excel you do it all within Excel.

"The wider internet community" may have less experience with Numbers, and be guessing that it is 'much like MS Excel," which it is not.
