With a backup copy of your workbook open, right-click on the Excel Icon and
"View Code".
Copy/paste this code into that module.
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PrintArea = "$A$1:$I$58"
Application.DisplayFullScreen = True
With ActiveSheet.PageSetup
.CenterHeader = "Date"
.LeftFooter = "Company Name"
.PrintGridlines = False
.Orientation = xlPortrait
.Draft = False
.FirstPageNumber = xlAutomatic
End With
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.PrintPreview
End Sub
There are many more print features and functions you could add to this.
Best to record a macro while doing your complete print setup to see the code
generated.

To have your workbook open to a particular sheet in print preview mode you would
need to have some event code which runs when the workbook is opened.

Print Preview mode is none too presentable in my opinion.
What exactly do you want the active sheet to look like?
No menus or toolbars showing or???
