Export Parts...->PDF, then you can print the desired Part

...once you have the parts, you can print them individually by viewing them and using File / Print, or you can generate PDF's for all of them at once with File / Export Parts.
Did you generate the parts using menu item: File / Parts and then click on "New All"?
See:
https://musescore.org/en/handbook/part-extraction#setup-all-parts
Once you have the parts generated from the full score, select the proper tab to display the part you wish to print.
Then with the proper part displayed, open the print dialog, and you will see that it shows the number of pages for that part only.

As mentioned, most likely you haven't yet actually generated any parts. You need to do that first - see File / Parts. Then you can print parts one at a time by clicking their tabs, or all at once via File / Export Parts. Also see the documentation - the Handbook section entitled "Part extraction". Which specific instructions in the documentation are you finding not to work?
If this doesn't solve your problem, please attach your score and give precise steps to reproduce the problem.
Thanks for all the good suggestions. My own ignorance is probably at fault. I'm impressed with the level of support from users. I'm used to Sibelius; I need to get in tune with the differences. Also am trying to learn in order to teach a newbie about MuseScore. So thanks very much.
Thank you for good support. I have generated parts, and I can print them one at a time from the tabs. That's okay for a quintet. However, for big band or orchestra that's a lot of tabs. I seem not to be able to print from :"export parts" I can export, and they end up as pdf files (separate). Good to have, but I seem not have any way to print them all at once. Am I missing something?

if there is not any better: select all the PDF (Shift + click) Right-click -> print
or use something like pdfsam

Look again - one of those PDF's should have *all* the parts in it. or just print all the PDF's from Explorer as shown above.
