setting a print area
 

I cannot arrive at the correct syntax to define my selected range as the
print area:
Set prntRng = Range(Cells(1, 1), Cells(i, 12))
prntRng.Select
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PrintArea =

Help appreciated, many thanks

The printarea is specified as a string. You therefore need to provide a
string like

ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PrintArea = "$A$1:$L$" & i

or if you want to use the range address then:

Set prntRng = Range(Cells(1, 1), Cells(i, 12))
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PrintArea = prntRng.address
