Hi HS
This may not be the solution you were looking for but the way I
sometimes deal with the disparity of how I want to use a spreadsheet and
how I want it to print can easily be handled by adding another sheet
that is set up the way you want it to look when it is printed with the
data gained through links to the working sheet.
The great thing about doing this is that you don't need to muck around
with hiding and unhiding columns you don't want printed and the
formatting can be different to the working sheet if that is of benefit.
Works for me anyway

Well, I had that selective printing working in OOo 2.3.1 (in Debian
Lenny). Basically I select the desired columns and 'define' the data
range. Then I select that data range and do Print->Selection and I get
the desired columns in the print out. I learned to do that from here:
http://www.linuxjournal.com/node/1000132
I was trying to the same thing on somebody's Debian Sid computer, which
has OOo 2.4.0~rc6, but there the print menu was different than what I
had in OOo 2.3.1. I tried to repeat the steps I had followed in 2.3.1,
but it didn't work out ... the options/interface was also different in
the newer version of OOo.
So I know that it is supposed to work without my having to hide columns
or make another sheet. It just appears that either I am not following
the steps right in 2.4 or there is something wrong with this version.
