It is possible inside LibreOffice. Such setting is part of the printing 
dialog. So must not use the button for printing, but use menu File -> 
Print. In the printing dialog is a tab 'Page Layout' where you can 
arrange the pages on the paper sheet. She might need to set the paper 
orientation to landscape in the printer properties in additon.

In older versions of OpenOffice.org is was possible too. You had to 
switch to 'page preview'. There use the icon 'printer options' (that 
with hand and finger) to arrange the pages on the paper sheet, and then 
print using the print icon from that toolbar, no other printing way.

Outside of LibreOffice the best way I found is to export to PDF and use 
the settings in the print dialog of the Acrobat Reader.

Kind regards
Regina
