 Help with Cyrillic computing

I occasionally need to include a short section in Cyrillic script into an otherwise English-language Word document. I have need of advice in 2 areas : 1) how can I change my keyboard so that I can type in Cyrillic continuously (at present, I have to use 'Insert Symbol' and enter letters one at a time) and 2) even though I can display Cyrillic on screen, the resulting document does not print correctly - the non-English section appears as unprintable characters.
For information, I am using Word 97 and my printer is a Minolta PagePro 6e laser with PCL5e and GDI emulations available.
Thanks for any support
