You should be able to close the document immediately by calling close(true) on it. The document will refuse to be closed if the printing process is still ongoing (by throwing an exception) but it will automatically close itself as soon as the printing is done (if you have used "true" as an argument in the close call). I'm not sure what will happen if you close the whole application while a printing is ongoing (never tested this). In case you don't need to do this and if you also don't need to stay operable with OOo1 you can try to drop the waiting.
