Open office and automatic saving

Hi

I'm printing a load of documents [seperately] and when I click on the print button it always asks me to save the document [which I saved anyway] but it wont print. I tried again and again it is asking me to save.

I've tried lookign in the help section of O.O but im at a loss.

Does anyone know? please before I pull my hair out

thanks
Can't think of anything funny to put here!

  • Go to File > Print and make sure the printer that is selected is your physical printer and it is not trying to print to file.

    If it is trying to print to file, make sure your physical printer is selected as your default printer in your Printers folder :)
