You can print individual topics with the Print Topic tool in Project > Manage Topics. The advantage of this over Print User Manual function (Application Button menu) is that this function only prints the selected topic or topics. Print User Manual uses a PDF print manual template, which always includes additional elements like the cover and back page, table of contents, index and so on, even when you only print one or more selected topics.

See PDF and Printed Manuals for more details on using these other functions.

How to print the current topic
1.Select the topic you want to print by clicking on it in the TOC.
2.Select the Print Topic tool in Project > Manage Topics.
3.Select your printer and other settings in the print menu, then select OK to print.
How to print multiple topics

To print multiple topics you need to use the Print User Manual function (Application Button menu). If you frequently want to print multiple topics you can set up a special print manual template for this with all the sections except the Topics section disabled. Then you just select this template in the Print User Manual dialog before printing.

1.Select the topics you want to print by clicking on them in the TOC, using Ctrl+Click to select topics out of order and SHIFT+Click to select continuous blocks of topics.
2.Click on the Application Button and select Print User Manual.
3.Select the Selected topics option in the Include Options: box.
4.Select your printer and other settings in the print menu, then select OK to print.

See Printing user manuals for full details on using the Print User Manual function.
