To print a range of pages in WfW you just specify from and to.  Things get sticky if you have different sections, as I assume you would in your case.
Section 1 = Title page
Section 2 = Table of contents
Section 3 = Document.
So to print the first four pages of the third section, you would enter the
range as: P1S3 to P4S3 (this is on page 277 of the Users Ref)

I just uploaded a packet of WfW macros to Cica.Indiana that contains a macro to print a range of ranges:
1, 2-4, P3S3-P10S3, all at the same time
The macro also allows you to print only even or only odd pages...

Hope this helps.
