Do you have OpenOffice.org set to send the document to the correct
printer? It may have inadvertently been set to "fax," "print to file" or
something else. Before you click "OK" in the "Print" dialog box next
time, take a look at which printer OOo thinks it is sending its output to.
Good Luck,

Sorry about that. I'm a descent mechanic, but computers aren't really
what I'm all about.
I have a Dell Dimension 8400
Pentium 4 3.2GHz
1024mb Ram
Microsoft Windows ZP Professional
Version 5.1.2600
At first, my documents would print fine, after a day or two, it would
not print from Open Office anymore. I did not change anything, and the
printer did not change.
I am on a Network, and am not using a printer connected directly to my
computer.
When I try to print with Open Office a screen comes up that asks me
which printer, or fax I want to use, or if I want to print to file,
after I click ok, the message that usually tells me that the computer
is printing page 1 of 1 (or how many pages) only flashes extremely
quickly on teh screen. Not slow enough for me to read anything of it,
if I blink, I miss it.
When I go into my "printers and faxes" settings on my computer, it does
tell me it has an error printing the test page.
one day my printer was printing fine, the next day it wasn't. Neither
computer was turned off during the night, and my computer won't print.
What the network owner is telling me is everytime I try to print, the
owner of the network has to turn his PC off, and back on (not just
restart) to be able to print again.
Thanks,
Merrick
P.S. If you need any more info, let me know, thanks.

I am having problems printing with Openoffice.
I can print from Word, or from the internet, but, I cannot print from
Open Office.
Could you run me down a list of problem areas?
Thanks,
Merrick
can you give more details- what operating System are you using, what
happens when you try to print, what are you trying to print, what
version of OO?
