Well, it is not that easy...

When opening an application like Writer without opening any documents the
availability of the printer shouldn't make a difference. Since the Writer
default for layouting was changed from "use printer metrics" to "use generic
metrics" even before at least OOo2.0, I doubt that the problem still exists. I
haven't been able to reproduce it with a recent version.

When opening documents which are formatted with "use printer metrics" access to
the printer is really needed. For Writer documents this is the case if checkbox
"use printer metrics" in the dialog "Tools->Options->Writer->Compatibility" is
checked. This usually happens for older documents from e.g. OOo 1.x.

So now the situation can be summarized as:
- if the printer is not needed the problem isn't there anymore
- if the printer metrics are really needed there is no point to put the printer
access into a separate thread because one has to wait anyway...
