There seems to be an error with the new print dialog. Do the following:

1. Type a text in writer (some lines should suffice)
2. Right click page and select "Page..."
3. Set format to "A5" and Orientation to "Landscape"
4. Select File-->Print...
5. Click on "Page layout"
6. Change "pages per sheet" to "2"
7. Go back to "General". 

In previous version of OO (pre-3.3), I could set "Number of copies" to 2 and 
two landscape A5 pages were printed on one Portrait A4 page. Now this doesn't 
work anymore.

Therefore, I:
8. Set pages to "1,1". The preview shows the page as it SHOULD be.

After clicking "print", however, the printer prints the document on the lower 
left part of the A4 page using only 3/5 of the space of the A4 page (so the 
result is much smaller and a lot of paper is wasted).

If it is not supported to achieve this by setting pages to "1,1" (which would 
be a pity), the preview should reflect this correctly.
So there's definitely some bug here. And this bug was introduced with the new 
print dialogue (I could achieve the desired behavior in earlier versions of 
OOWriter).
