I usually have no problems printing OOo documents, but I find the options offered by the print tool very limited compared with Kprinter. For this reason, this is what I do with every new openSuse install: To send print jobs through “Kprinter”, run “/usr/lib/ooo-2.0/program/spadmin” in the command line, add a “New printer”, “Connect a PDF converter”, using the default driver, and use “kprinter” as the appropriate command and name of the printer. Finally, set this new printer as the default printer. From then on, I always send print jobs to this "new printer" Kprinter, which then opens kprinter and allows me to resize, print 2 pages in 1, adjust colour, etc. -- Carlos FL "It is not worth an intelligent man's time to be in the majority.
