Can anyone suggest how I can overcome this print problem, please?

Er, ditch your Mac and buy a PC? ;^)

The Print dialogue should have a number of tabs, including Page Layout, which should reveal your problem. Why does your Mac fail in doing this? Perhaps you can get to the same functionality using some of the controls on the Print dialogue you do see?

You appear to have set your document to print as a Brochure. You could disable this on the Page Layout tab, if there were one. Go to Tools | Options... (er, that's Preferences on a Mac) | OpenOffice Writer | Print | Pages and remove the tick from Brochure. Alternatively, go to File | Printer Settings... | Options... | Pages and do the same thing.

I trust this helps.
