Now simply use the Calendar item in the Outlook navigation pane, and then select the “Blank Calendars” calendar we just created, making sure to unselect the others if necessary.
Now you can use the File Print menu to print the calendar. You’ll want to choose the Print style, whether monthly or weekly or other, and also make sure the date range is correct.
