Just tested. It's Ctrl+right, not Ctrl+left.

Edit: also, no-one says that the cell size has to remain default. 34 million pages is rookie numbers.

Rather than changing the cell size, just send 3 or 4 copies to the printer. Way faster

[–] taiyang@lemmy.world 12 points 11 months ago (1 children)

It'd have to be a bit more than 3 or 4 since you're likely increasing exponentially by increasing the size and cells can get big.

[–] brown567@sh.itjust.works 18 points 11 months ago (1 children)

No, an increase in cell size would increase page count multiplicatively. Cells twice as tall would print the same amount as printing twice

[–] taiyang@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I was thinking in length and height, of course. Doubling both quadruples pages, and that's assuming you stop at twice the size.

☝️🤓 that would still only be a quadratic rate of increase, not an exponential rate of increase

Make it so the printer prints a copy of itself every other print.

My 3D printer printer prints only printers now

They were using the Japanese version of excel
