Yes, after trying some scenarios, Writer seems to be clean.

Nope, thats not completely right.

Here some scenario with calc:
First I checked the printer metrics. "Use printer metrics for text formating", 
in calc, is off.

1. Set default printer to a local one.
  Now, open calc -> no (network) access
  Save sheet -> no access
  Close calc
  Open sheet -> no access
  Close all.

2. Set default printer to network printer
  Open previous sheet -> network access
  Close all without saving.

3. Set default printer back to local
  Open previous sheet -> no access

4. Set default printer to network
  Open calc -> no access
  Save sheet -> network access
  Close calc
  Open sheet -> network access
  Close all.

5. Set default printer back to local
   Open previous sheet -> network access

For me it seems, that the printer information is stored at ".ods" files, and 
the printer is accessed on opening.
I also tried storing to "Excel" ".xml" files. On opening these, there is no 
printer access.
On opening ".xls" there is access to the default printer.



I hope this is helpfull.

Christian
