Is there any way to get a shortcut on the toolbar for the "print current page" option?

Basic facts--the only way you can get a shortcut on the toolbar in
MacWord 2008 is if Word already offers a built-in command somewhere in
Customize Toolbars. Without a built-in command, the best you can get is
a script that lives in the Word script menu, and can be assigned a
keyboard shortcut.

Re this question--I can't find a built-in command for Print Current Page
in View | Customize Toolbars.  However, this script should work--it's
from the AppleScript reference for Word 2004:

tell application "Microsoft Word"
   print out active document print out range print current page
end tell

For instructions on what to do with it, see here:
