Thank you for your response Uwe.
I'm using OpenOffice.org version 2.4 and I have tried reinstalling it.
My operating system is Windows XP sp3.
I can print from Calk spreadsheet, but I can't seem to find a way of defining
the print range for just the chart which will then appear in Print Preview, and
then print as just that chart on a single page.
I tried using Format>Print etc to set the range and also Format>Page where I
unchecked everything except Chart.
Previously I have achieved what I set out to do this time. I don't remember
how I did it except that, although I didn't find it intuitive, it didn't take
as long as I have been trying this time.
I also note that when I was successful, I was using the former version (one
immediately before 2.4). I'm trying to find a copy of the previous version of
OpenOffice to install in place of 2.4 but so far am unsuccessful.
if you want to print only the chart, nothing else, do the following:
1. Click the chart once, so it has eight green handles.
2. Press Ctrl+C to copy the chart
3. Click an unused sheet tab or create a new sheet and switch to that sheet.
4. Press Ctrl+V to paste the chart
5. Print only the sheet with the chart on it.
For some spreadsheets there might exist print ranges. The handling of
print ranges got changed lately. If the above method with the otherwise
empty sheet does not work for you, a defined print range may block
printing. In this case it might be best to open a new Writer or Draw doc
amd paste the chart into that doc for printing.

Which version of OpenOffice.org do you use?
On which operating system?
Can you print the other contents from that Calc spreadsheet?
Only the chart does not appear?
If this is true, open the Calc help (press F1), and on the Index tab
page of the Help, enter "charts;printing" to find some help about
printing charts. Someone might have excluded charts from being printed.
