Default Button within Word to print certain pages

Hello, first post so go easy. I have an 8 page Word doc. I need somewhere on the first page 3 x buttons. Button 1, once clicked prints pages 1-4, button 2, once clicked prints 5-6, button 3, prints 7-8. I know you have the option of selecting various print options via the print menus but ideally I need the 3 x buttons option to keep it simple. I don't want a macro button on the toolbar as this document will be hosted and used by many different users. Thanks in advance.

You could use MACROBUTTON fields in the body of the document itself to trigger the appropriate macros. The document will then have to be saved in the doc or docm format, as the docx format doesn't support macros. See attached sample. Do note that nothing will print from this document until it has at least 4 pages.
