Anything's possible! <grin>

If I try to print with OO, the only printer listed is "Generic Printer.
It's Status is "Default printer"
and it's Type is "SGENPRT

And there seems to be no way to change those settings.  If CUPS is not
installed, OO prints just fine. If CUPS is running on this machine,
everything else will print just fine, but whatever OO sends to the 
printer ends up in the bit bucket.
