Printing Handouts

Post by frazelle09 »

Amhaving problems printing handouts. Have followed instructions in Help, but all i get are six blank pages. Sometimes i get one page with just one slide on it instead of the six that i need.

Any ideas?

Have a great day! :)

Have you read the Forum Survival Guide? You can often find your own answer with a quick search.

Try this thread: Printing multiple slides on one page

Thanks acknak! i usually read the forums before i post, but this time i just forgot to include the disclaimer that i had already read them, including the post you included. As i mentioned above, we've already tried what seems to be all the options and am now out of color ink. Am using PCLinuxOS.

Any other ideas?

Have a great evening! :)

Umm, you used up all the ink printing blank pages? ;-)

Are you using the OOo packages downloaded from OO.org, or the packages supplied by PCLinuxOS? What OOo version is it?

Have you set the print options to include only the handouts--no slides ("Drawing") or notes?

No, we used up all the ink printing one slide per page.

i suspect that the version we are using is from the Linux people and we have decided to ask on their forum.

Have a great day! :)

You can try to install the official version of OOo : [Ubuntu] Installing OOo on Debian and Co. Very often the distro version of OOo has some flaws.
