Consider renaming it to .csv, opening it in calc, and either changing
the Separator Option to Fixed Width (a bit of a pain if you have many
columns, since you must "tell" OOo where the columns break), or change
the Separated By: from comma to space and check merge delimiters (but I
think that could get messed up by a blank field).

An excel prn formated file is plain, space-delimited text. Both excel
and OOo will import it.

Correct, and if I'm correct, a .prn file is intended to be printed on a
specific printer. That means it will contain, at best, PCL
instructions for
the chosen printer, but at worst it could be a bitmap-type file. I doubt
that either of these can be imported, even by Excel!

If I'm correct, then .prn is a file you create when you choose the
option to print anything to a file instead of the normal print to a
printer. I think these kind of files can be created by any windows
program.
