I suspect that you'll have the same issues. 3.3 provides a similar
experience (for me); seems to have a few modifications to the Print UI
look& feel, but overall doesn't seem to be all that different (again,
for me).
I'm not exactly holding my breath, but it's been suggested so I'll try
it. Probably later this week. What puzzles me slightly is that there's
only the one printer there - a samsung laser running under CUPS. So "has
to be" (famous last words :-) ) the same driver for all applications.
I'd recommend posting over on the users list (both OOo users and Ubuntu
users) to see if someone there can assist.
I wonder if this is affecting you:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/openoffice/+bug/48694
[[Upstream] [hardy] CUPS printer properties are not propagated to
OpenOffice]
http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=75579
[CUPS printer property changes are not propagated to OpenOffice]
Though... again, this should most likely be addressed on the user list
rather than the discus list.
I tried changing the printer driver from the recommended one (foomatic)
to CUPS/gutenprint (5.2.5-en, iirc). Now I get a whole pile more options
in the OOo print dialogue - a similar set afaict to gedit's offering.
The only catch is that /neither/ now offers the standard/economy toner
control.
The bugs referenced above relate to storage of printer options within
the document (a mixed blessing, imo :-) ) and go back quite a way.
I can't be the only one with this problem, surely!! But I take your
point about the users' list. Maybe I need to resubscribe and see if the
noise level has dropped lately :-}
