Printing Minimalism
Is there a way to print (or create a version to print) a score with only the parts that are playing? For example, instead of printing a few pages of two out of thirty instruments playing, I want to print just the parts for the two instruments until the rest begin playing, to save paper and ink. (I don't really need to see a thousand measures of rest throughout the course of a long score.)

Use the menu path: Format > Style... > Score > Hide empty staves within systems
[EDIT]
... and see the Handbook section on Staff Properties, where there is a sub-heading "Hide when empty". Read this paragraph very carefully!
