Perhaps you have forgotten that uninstalling OOo 2.1 does not
remove all of the OOo files. The preference files are among those
files. Do a search for openoffice.org. It should find two folders.
One of them should contain a subfolder named user, and user should
have a subfolder named templates. This is the folder which contains
your personal settings. I suggest you rename this folder or if you
desire, you can delete it. Then install OOo 2.1 if you have not
already done so. Run OOo 2.1. It should recreate this the folder you
renamed (or deleted) with the default settings.
It would also seem possible that your printer settings in OOo are
not correct. File > Printer settings > Properties should show you how
the printer is configured for OOo.
