It does sound like a printer driver issue. You should be able to "File" -> "Export as PDF" even for your spreadsheets. Also make sure that you are using the latest version of OOo for the Mac ( I think that 2.1 should work) and if the problenm persists can you please report this in issuezilla ? ( http://openoffice.org -> "My Pages" -> "Register", then when you receive a confirmation email, "Login" and "File an issue" ) In this way the relevant developers will see your bug report / suggestion and you will also see the progress of this feature / bug report if it is accepted.
