For me, the problem seems to have worsened with LibreOffice on Ubuntu Precise 12.04. Using a network CUPS Server via environment variable (CUPS_SERVER and LPDEST) which worked fine until Lucid. After a fresh install of Oneiric I've experienced the behavior described above, LibreOffice requiring me to repeat the steps necessary to print a page from LOo to get my stuff printed. Now, after having upgraded to Precise, printing does only work if I switch on the printer, start Libreoffice and print the document rightaway in a matter of seconds. After that (30 secs?), printing is not possible anymore, not at all, from the open LOo session.
Trying the Timeout workaround now, see if it helps.

File -> Print --- the printer list is empty except for the default printer. 3. abort. 4. File -> Print --- this time the drop down dialog holds all printers, you can select the one you want. 5.

This is alt least annoying, but not fatal, since you can print to the printer you'd like to use, but you'll have to open the print dialog twice, aborting it the first time.
