Why is a 'copy picture..' from Excel not printing in my Word Doc?

I am using the following function to paste a graphic of selected cells in an
Excel worksheet into a Word Doc:

" - On the worksheet or chart sheet, select the cells or click the chart or
object you want to copy as a picture.
- Hold down SHIFT and click Copy Picture on the Edit menu.
- For the best picture quality, make sure As shown on screen and Picture
are selected, and then click OK
- Click the worksheet or other document where you want to paste the picture.
- Click Paste "

When I go to print the document, the graphic does not print. Can anyone
help with this problemo?

Go to Tools > Options > Print and make sure "Drawing objects" is checked.
