How to print calendar from Outlook

To print out a calendar in Outlook 365 - 2013, these are the steps to follow:

In your Outlook, navigate to calendars, and choose the one you wish to print from the left sidebar.
Go to the File tab and select Print. Or press the Ctrl + P keys simultaneously, which is the print shortcut in all Outlook versions and apps.
The Print menu will appear, showing a preview of the selected calendar with the default settings. Here you can change the printer if needed and choose the style. For example, you can print monthly Outlook calendar with all appointments:
Click Print Options to adjust additional settings such as the date range, number of copies and formatting options.
To print a calendar without private details, select the Hide details of private appointments checkbox.
Preview your calendar to ensure it looks the way you want it.
Once satisfied, click on the Print button.

And there you have it - a neatly printed calendar to help you stay organized and prepared for the days ahead.

Note. Currently, Outlook doesn't offer the option for printing multiple calendars at once. Even if you select several calendars, it will only print appointments and meetings from the first one.

Print a blank calendar from Outlook

Sometimes you might need a blank calendar for a specific purpose or to jot down plans manually. The easiest way to print a blank calendar without any appointments or meetings or is to create a new calendar in Outlook, and then print it as you normally would.

Create a blank calendar in classic Outlook

To create a blank calendar in the old Outlook app, this is what you need to do:

Go to your Outlook calendars.
On the Home tab, click Add Calendar > Create New Blank Calendar.
In the pop-up dialog window, enter a name for your new calendar and select the folder where to place it, normally it's your main Calendar folder. Click OK to save it.

You can now see a blank calendar in your Outlook and print it with your preferred formatting and styles.

Make a blank calendar in new Outlook and web app

To create a blank calendar in the new Outlook app or Outlook on the web, follow these steps:

Head over to Calendar and click Add calendar in the left pane.
In the window that opens, choose Create blank calendar. Give it a name, select your preferred color, and pick the folder where to save it (My calendars is the default one). When done, click Save.

Done! The newly created blank calendar is right there, ready for whatever you need it for. Print it out, pin it up, and make it your own.

How to print multiple calendars in Outlook

While the classic Outlook app doesn't support printing multiple calendars simultaneously, the new Outlook and web app offer a "merged view" of all selected calendars, making it possible to print them together.

Here's how you can print multiple calendars in the new Outlook or web app:

Select all the calendars you want to print. Outlook will combine all their events into a single view.
Click the Print button, choose the desired view and time range, and proceed with printing.

Done! Your printout will now contain all the appointments and events from the selected calendars, helping you consolidate your schedule in one convenient place.

Print out date range on Outlook calendar

In some situations, it may be particularly useful to have a physical copy of your calendar for the specified date range. Here's how you can do it:

Print a certain date range in classic Outlook

To print out a specific date range from your Outlook calendar, you can follow these steps:

Select the target calendar and click File > Print.
Depending on how many days you want to print, select either Daily Style or Weekly Calendar Style.
Click the Print Options button.
In the dialog that opens, set the desired date range by entering the start and end dates.
Click Preview to update the view with your new settings.
If the preview displays the date range as you wish, click Print.

Note. If you specify a date range that covers only a few days but choose the Month style, Outlook will print the entire month (or months, if the chosen dates span two months). The same applies to weeks. If you select only one day but opt for the Week style, the entire week will be printed.

Print a certain week in Outlook online and new app

Printing a specific week in the new Outlook app and web is straightforward, even though the print settings do not allow for selecting a custom date range.

Select the needed week from the drop-down calendar at the top.
Click the Print button.

That's all there is to it. The selected week will be prepared for printing, allowing you to have a physical copy of your weekly schedule.

Change time range when printing Outlook calendar

While in the new Outlook calendar, the time range settings are clearly noticeable regardless of your view choice, adjusting the timespan in the old Outlook requires a deeper dive into the settings:

Select the preferred calendar and press the Ctrl + P key combination.
Choose either Daily or Weekly Calendar style.
Click the Print Options button.
In the Print dialog that opens, click Page Setup.
At the bottom of the Page Setup dialog, you can modify the time period by picking from the "Print from" and "Print to" dropdown lists.
Click OK and then Preview to make sure it correctly reflects your desired time range.

This allows you to get only the relevant hours on your physical copy.

How to print multiple months in Outlook calendar

Normally, when choosing the Monthly calendar style in Outlook, it will print a specific month. To print multiple months, carry out these steps:

In the classic Outlook app, select the calendar and press Ctrl + P shortcut.
Under Settings, choose the Monthly style.
Click the Print Options button.
In the Print dialog box, define the date range:
- In the Start box, pick the first day of the first month.
- In the End box, pick the last day of the last month.
For example, to print the entire year, set the period from January 1 to December 31 as shown in the screenshot:
Click the Preview button and check if all the desired months are included. In our case, a whole year will be printed, with each month on a separate page:

Note. Unfortunately, the new Outlook and web app do not have the date range settings, therefore this solution is only applicable to the classic Outlook. If you're using the new application, you'll need to print each month individually.

How to print Outlook calendar in different time zones

When traveling across different time zones, it's essential to have your calendar reflect the correct times to avoid any scheduling mishaps. Here's how you can print your Outlook calendar with multiple time zones:

Add multiple time zones to your Outlook calendar.
Press Ctrl + P to access the print menu.
Choose a calendar view that shows multiple time zones: Daily, Weekly Calendar, or Tri-Fold Style.
Look at the preview section to verify that the different time zones are displayed correctly and that your appointments and meetings are shown in the correct time zone.
Once everything looks good, click Print.

This feature is particularly useful for international travelers or professionals who work with teams in various parts of the world, ensuring that everyone is on the same page regardless of their geographical location.

How to print Outlook calendar to PDF

Printing your Outlook calendar to PDF is a handy way to share your schedule or keep a backup. Here's how to do it in the classic Outlook app:

Select the calendar you want to save as a PDF file.
Click File > Print or use the Ctrl + P shortcut.
In the printer selection dropdown, choose Microsoft Print to PDF.
Select your preferred style and click Print.
In the Save Print Output that pops up, choose a folder for your PDF and click Save.

And now, you have your Outlook calendar in a PDF format, ready to be shared or archived.
