John,
You are partially correct. The printing problems with OOo tend to be
the result of incorrectly implementing the printer driver APIs in many
cases, or so I've been told by the developers in response to filed
issues. I have encountered and written up numerous problems, the most
exciting of which was printing to a Xerox 860DP which modified many of
the properties of the document and automatically saved the modified version.

Unfortunetly, I think you hit it when you said "simple" text editors.
Try printing a pdf (the adobe reader is free). For instance save one
of your OOo documents as a pdf, and print that pdf from adobe.
Most of the printing heavy lifting is in the printer driver, not
applications like OOo.
Of course, I could be wrong. But this test will help divide & conquer.
Good luck

Dear all,
Printing from OOo using a dot-matrix printer (in our case, Epson
LQ-2180), either using the Windows or Linux version of OOo, only gives a
partial output (only around 3/4 part from the left margin is printed, a
quarter of the page on the right side is blank).
I've been searching the forums but couldn't find a solution to this
problem. Maybe I haven't gone through the pile of information in
detail...
BTW, using a simple text editor from Linux or other applications from
Windows, this problem doesn't exist. And using inkjet or laser printers
isn't producing the problem either, so something is troubling from within
OOo.
Can anyone help please?
Thanks,
Kurnia
PS.: OOo version: 1.1.2, 1.1.4 and 1.9.122.
