When I click on the "Collate" entry on the "Device" tab, the "Current value"

Just so it's clear, my issue is not printing of multiple copies, but
printing of multiple pages per sheet.
Ah... right over my head. My apologies. I now see exactly what you are
referring to.
I see that Firefox (or SeaMonkey) bring up *all* of the options of the
printer & include 'Pages per side' in 'Job Options', and OOo does not.
Now that I'm back with the program I'll see if I can figure out how/why.
OK. From F1 (Help):
Printing Multiple Pages on One Sheet
In Page Preview mode, you have the option to print multiple pages on one
sheet.
1.Choose File - Page Preview.
2.Do one of the following:
To print two pages side by side on the same sheet, click the Page
Preview: Two Pages icon on the Page Preview bar.
To print multiple pages on the same sheet, click the Print options page
view icon on the Page Preview bar and set the options that you want.
3.Click the Print page view icon .
It works for me & I learned something in the process :-)
Interestungly, I just tried a 4 up print from FireFox on a Win XP box.
OK. I then tried the same thing in OO 3, same box. No problem. In
both instances I was sending to a Kyocera MFP. I accessed the
multi-page settings for both tests from the print dialog after selecting
print from the file menu. In my situation the print driver is obviously
handling everything. In the above scenario, the OO software appears to
be handling at least some of the overhead. Now is it just a difference
in the OS or is it in the printers (and emulation) being used? That
answer is beyond my ability to provide. ;-)
