Mail merge problem; from Excel '08 .xlsx file to Word '08

[Gardebien]

I'm trying to create a mail merge form letter on Mac 10.6.8 using Word 2008 from an Excel 2008 .xlsx file. After creating the letter and previewing it, the fields are populated correctly but when I send it to the printer to print the fields are not filled in. I've tried saving it as a document and printing that, but again the fields are not populating. How do I get what appears on the screen print out?
