Several days ago I stated that Open Office has
created a problem with my printers. The system
has defaulted to a 4-pages per sheet instead of one.
ALL other windows programs work properly printing a
1 page per sheet. I was emailed saying it was
my problem since I did not know how to set the
pages per sheet setting for my printers. SINCE
I have been working with printers long before
Windows existed, I would know the difference.
OO has changed something that the default is
now 4 per sheet. I changed the setting to 2 per sheet
and it worked properly, but when I set it back to
1 per sheet, the same 4 per sheet was back.
SINCE this happens to ALL my printers with
Open Office and does not happen to other
programs - OO is the problem.
I even uninstalled OO and used a registry cleaner
to clean up any problems. When I installed OO, the
old settings and defaults I set up came back. I cannot
even remove the install of OO so I could cleanly
re-install it.
SO will someone out there believe that OO has caused
a problem and I want to get rid of it. I like OO but
if I cannot print any document from it, I may as well
not use it any more.
SO please - some one help me. Either help me
resolve the problem with OO and/or help with
how to remove all trace of it in the registry
so I can do a clean install with no previous settings
found and used in the current version.
OR I must stop using it and tell my company
and their clients to stop using OO. If we cannot
use OO because of such a problem, then others
will have problems later.
Okay - now its a little clearer what the issue is. I've no idea why
the default setting on all your printers has been affected the way it
has. I've certainly not heard of such a thing happening before.
It does sound like you've done all you can with ridding OOo so a clean
install can be done.
I would personally recommend that you step by step list what occurs,
the printers your using, the drivers your using, the version of
windows your using, the service pack your using and all other details,
and put them into a bug report for the developers to have a look at.
