You may have noticed the presence, under the "View" >>
"Master" menu, also of Handout Master and Notes Master.
What are they for? What is the difference between them and the Slide Master?
Handout Master:
by choosing this option, you will be able to edit or slightly modify the appearance of all the printouts you will get when printing choosing the option "handouts".
Once you have displayed the Handout Master ("View" >> "Master" >> "Handout") you have four text boxes, in the four corners, where you can type any additional information you would like to appear ONLY in the handout but not in the slides or in your presentation. You can add any text info by clicking on any of the four text boxes (the header and the footer) and type your text, which will be displayed in your printouts.
Check also the following article about "Header and Footer" because it is strictly connected to this.
Notes Master:
what you can do when you select the "Notes Master" is more or less the same as the Handout Master. In this view, you can add your specific headers and footers by using the same method shown above, and you can also modify the style of the text that will appear in the printouts of your notes.

Print options for handouts and print materials
First of all, let me spend a few words about the "Print" icon that you find in PowerPoint.
Like in other Office products, if you click that icon when you want to print, you print all the slides in the presentation and you don't have the option to customize your type of print.
Instead of using that "Print" icon on the left side of the Standard toolbar, I suggest you get the habit of clicking on "File" >> "Print" and then selecting in the "Print" dialog box all the custom options you need: current slide, all the slides, number of copies and so on.
This way you have a better control of what you are printing, even if it takes a few seconds more.
Once you get the "Print" dialog box, let's see in detail all you can do.
First, make sure that you are printing to the right printer.
You may have more than one printer connected, maybe you also have a color printer, so here is where you select the printer you will be using. Click on the "printer name" drop-down list and select the appropriate printer.
Second, you can choose the "Print range": do you want to print the whole presentation? Or do you need just a few slides? Maybe you only need the current slide, so here is where you can change it, saving time and trees in case you really don't need to print the entire presentation.
Third, at the bottom of the dialog-box, you can finally select what you can print.
By clicking on the "Print what:" drop-down list, you will be able to choose:
a) Slides
b) Handouts
c) Notes pages
d) Outline view
a) Slides
If you choose this option, you will print each slide on a separate A4 (or maybe "letter" for US users) sheet. The slide will fill completely the paper. This option may be useful in case you want to show your presentation to someone to have feedback on the graphic and visual aspect of it.
