Greetings.
On my system (2.0.2), the print preview shows a preview of each page
with the page number at the foot of the preview. When I open the
preview, it opens at the page I have in front of me.
The print dialogue gives me the option to select the pages to be printed.
I regret that I am having difficulty identifying the problem.
Regards.

I also agree, and in particular, I think that Page Preview should show
exactly what will be printed once you hit Print. I find it very
disconcerting , on a spreadsheet with many sheets, to go to Page
Preview and see a preview of, say, 50 pages, even though I have it set
up to only print the active page by default. It always gives me an
instant of extreme concern when I actually print, whether it will
respect my wished to print a single page, or whether it will really
print what's in the page preview. Especially since there have been
instances where the whole file gets printed, for some reason I don't
understand.
To reiterate, it would be VERY helpful if Page Preview really showed
what was going to be printed.

I agree with you. Especially on larger spreadsheet it's impossible to
have to count the pages in your workbook to determine which page(s)
you want to print.
I definately think that the current sheet should be the default
printrange.

Calc, making "print only current sheet" installation default and
applying it to "Page preview" too?
(Since developers are not interested in discussing this issue I would
like to discuss it with fellow users)
Dear colleagues,
What do you think of default Calc's behavior to print complete workbook
instead of just current sheet? Printing all sheets seems
counterintuitive and wasteful in the age of "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle".
There is very old issue
http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=10530 for that.
If not this, at least making result of "Print" more consistent with
"Export to PDF" and "Page Preview" (last two do not respect "Print only
selected sheets" and output all sheets regardless) would make behavior
more logical and predictable to users. Additional problem with current
behavior is that page numbering in page preview and on paper are likely
to differ.
Please share your thoughts on the subject.
Thanks a lot.
WBR,
K. Palagin.
