Ok, is printing a hard copy necessary or is generating a PDF file sufficient?  I created a table, in Writer, with 10 columns and 20 rows.  I edited the first cell in each row and pressed "Enter" to double the height of the row.  When I reached row 20, I saw I had space at the bottom of the page so I added another row and updated the first cell by pressing "Enter".

When I generated a print preview, nothing appeared on the page! Then, I realized I had to enable borders.  :)   After doing that, the print preview showed a grid on the page.  I then generated a PDF file and the grid was preserved and looked good.  This is using Writer 7.5.2.2 on Manjaro (22, I think...the latest version) KDE Linux.

I don't have a printer connected to this system and the system with a printer attached has Writer 7.3.7 installed.  If you're interested in seeing the document and PDF file I generated, I can send both to you privately.  I didn't enter any text of any kind, just added the table.

Peace...

The version is 7.5.2.

Normally, when I post a question,  get a copy of my post.  That did not happen, 
so I assumed something went wrong.

Which version of Writer are you using?

Peace...

Subject: Potential bug printing blank Writer tables
To: Users users@global.libreoffice.org

A form was created using Writer tables, double spaced. Printing of the borders 
was very inconsistent - some too light to even see, a few ok, with most in 
between. Could I ask others to create a page in Writer with a table covering 
most of the page. Hit the Enter key twice in each line, then print it.

Tables printed with content in them seem to work fine.

Dave,
