After choosing a network printer, working in the printer dialog box becomes very, very slow, choosing the page to print, and the number of copies is excruciatingly slow once they are selected it prints okay. The same printing works fine in OO. Have not had a chance to try printing directly (not across the network).
I have the same problem on OOo 3.3 too. Only with the network printer.
Hi there, the print dialog offers loads of new and charming features, inc. print preview. I ascribe the slow down to the preview feature (it's a feature, not a bug...) -- but suggest for our convenience, that the preview feature should be optional (one could use a tag or so), by default just display page numbers...
Bug confirmed on Debian Linux. Please remove the preview in the Print dialog window, or make it optional, it's a real pain!
