If you want to print multiple slides to each piece of paper, there are a few different methods you can use. The easiest way is to use a printer that has a duplexer. This will allow you to print both sides of the slide at the same time. If your printer doesn’t have a duplexer, you can also use a two-sided adhesive tape. Simply place one slide on top of the other and then attach the tape in between them. This method is less reliable, as it’s possible that the slides will move during printing and cause damage. Another option is to print each slide on its own piece of paper and then fold them in half so that they form a booklet-style document. This method is more difficult, as it requires folding each slide correctly and ensuring that they’re all the same size. ..
Printing can be pretty expensive these days, so it pays to only print what you need. If you’re teaching or taking a class, then it’s likely you’ll have to print out large PowerPoint slide decks from time to time, and printing one slide per page wastes paper and ink. Here’s how to print multiple slides on each page.

Thankfully PowerPoint makes it easy to print multiple slides per page, saving you money on ink and paper and reducing the size of handouts for your audience.
Go to File > Print and click the black arrow to the right of the “Full Page Slides” button.
This opens up the “Print Layout” window where you have a bunch of options for how many slides per page you print and in what orientation. You can print up to nine slides per page, but if your slides are on the dense side, we’d recommend going with four or six slides per page, instead.
If you want to save even more paper, you could also print to both sides of each sheet. Some printers support automatic double-sided printing; for others, you’ll have to flip the paper around yourself. At up 18 slides per sheet of paper, that’s a saving no matter how you look at it.
