I've tried this on several Systems including Dapper Drake with OOo 2.0. Every tested version of OOo has this problem but neither KDE- nor Gnome-applications.
Normally the printer options should be forwarded to the cups filter (specified in the PPD file) as arg $5. But OOo doesn't do this. So this problem only affects printer who need a cups filter. I'll attach one of the tested PPDs. ** Changed in: openoffice.org (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- OpenOffice.org 2.4 doesn't pass printer-specific arguments to printer driver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/222602 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
