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 2 days 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 2 days 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 2 days 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
