You may have a need at times to print out a group of selections from different worksheets and have them appear on a single sheet of paper. Perhaps the easiest way to do this is to simply set up a "consolidation" worksheet that you would actually use for your printing. Follow these general directions:
Figure 1. The Paste Special dialog box.
The one big drawback to this approach is that if the worksheets from which you are copying have radically different formatting, you may not be able to merge them into a consolidated worksheet satisfactorily. (You will need to adjust the formatting in the consolidation sheet after pasting the different ranges.) In this case you may need to adjust formatting to get exactly the effect you desire.

My Excel Toolbox includes the DynamicImage macro, which is similar to the Camera Tool or Home > Paste > Linked Picture (Alt+H+V+I) but is NOT the same as Home > Paste > Paste Special > Paste Link as described in the Tip. The DynamicImage macro copies a range of cells and pastes it as a dynamic image in any sheet of any workbook. Several images can be copied to a sheet. Cell values retain their original format. Each image includes visible portions of shapes or charts from the copied range. Any changes in a copied range will be reproduced in its dynamic image. The result is a simple dashboard, which can be printed in the usual way.
