If you really want that format, you'll need a macro to change it.

Rightclick on the excel icon (to the left of the File option on the worksheet
menu bar).

Select view code and paste this code into the code window.

Option Explicit
Private Sub Workbook_BeforePrint(Cancel As Boolean)
Worksheets("Sheet1").PageSetup.LeftFooter _
= Format(Date, "dddd d, mmmm yyyy")
End Sub

Change the name of the sheet (and I used .leftfooter, too).
