Question details

Users want to print documents or emails from New Outlook without the Outlook logo appearing on the printed pages to save space and ink.

Product: Microsoft Outlook (New Outlook)
Device & OS: not provided
Scenario: Printing emails or calendar items directly from the New Outlook application.
Observed behavior: A large Outlook logo is automatically included on the printed documents, taking up valuable page space, and there is no built-in application setting to remove or disable it.

Before you start

Verify whether you are using the 'New Outlook' or the 'Classic Outlook' desktop application, as this specific printing limitation only applies to the new version.

Solution 1Recommended

Workaround 1: Revert to Classic Outlook

Since New Outlook forces the logo onto printed pages, switching back to Classic Outlook temporarily allows you to print emails using the traditional, logo-free layout.

Microsoft currently does not offer a toggle to disable the print logo in New Outlook. Reverting to the Classic version restores your previous printing preferences and layouts.

Toggle off New Outlook

Locate the 'New Outlook' toggle switch in the top right corner of the New Outlook application window and turn it off.

Provide feedback (Optional)

A prompt may ask why you are switching back. You can mention the printing issues and forced logo, then click 'Submit' or 'Skip'.

Print from Classic Outlook

Wait for Classic Outlook to launch. Open the email you need to print, go to 'File' > 'Print', and print your document cleanly without the logo.

Version Availability: This workaround requires that you still have the Classic Outlook desktop app installed on your system.

Workaround 2: Copy Content to a Word Processor

Bypass Outlook's print settings entirely by copying your email content into a blank document to print without any Outlook branding.

Solution 3

Submit a Feature Request to Microsoft

Since this is a hardcoded limitation in New Outlook, submitting feedback helps prioritize the addition of a toggle to remove the logo in future updates.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does New Outlook add a logo to printed emails?

Microsoft added the Outlook logo to printed documents in the New Outlook version as part of its redesigned interface and branding. Currently, it is a hardcoded layout choice with no built-in setting to disable it.

Can I remove the Outlook logo by modifying page setup or margins?

No, adjusting the page setup, margins, or header/footer settings within New Outlook's print dialogue will not remove the logo. The logo is automatically appended to the print layout by the application itself.

Will Microsoft fix the forced logo issue in New Outlook?

Microsoft relies heavily on user feedback for future feature updates. While there is no official timeline for a fix, many users have submitted feature requests on the Outlook Feedback Portal asking for a toggle to remove the logo.
