This can happen if:
a. There is more than one section in the document (perhaps more than one
section on a page, to accommodate a multi-column portion).
b. In reformatting for the current printer, Word changes the page breaks so
that an extra page is created, or a section break moves from one page to the
next.
The result is that a header that was present in the document (or template)
but not being used surfaces. If the document (or section) is just one page
and has "Different first page" selected, this could be the Header that shows
up only when the document or section runs to two pages (because the first
page is using the [empty] First Page Header). Or it could be a header
associated with a section in the middle of a page, which shows up when that
middle section wraps over a page break.

The person is getting a header w/ page numbers and a date, but nobody else
is. She sees and prints a header that is not supposed to be there. thanks.
