When did Power Query debut in Excel?
Although it was an add-in in Excel 2010 & Excel 2013, Power Query became a part of Excel in 2016, in Data, Get & Transform Data.
You probably can do this with VBA code

I've never done it, but I think you could get the general gist of it by recording a macro where you put the headers in and then, take them out. And then using the BeforePrint event inside ThisWorkbook with the PrintOut command and specific settings.

I made a quick try of it. I think the syntax needs a little tweaking, but this should get you close.
Code:
Private Sub Workbook_BeforePrint(Cancel As Boolean)
    If ActiveSheet.Name = mySheet Then
        With ActiveSheet.PageSetup
            .LeftHeader = ""
            .CenterHeader = ""
            .RightHeader = ""
            .LeftFooter = ""
            .CenterFooter = ""
            .RightFooter = ""
        End With
        Sheets(mySheet).PrintOut(1, 1) = True
        With ActiveSheet.PageSetup
            .LeftHeader = "myText"
            .CenterHeader = "myText"
            .RightHeader = "myText"
            .LeftFooter = "myText"
            .CenterFooter = "myText"
            .RightFooter = "myText"
        End With
        Sheets(mySheet).PrintOut(2) = True
    End If
End Sub
