  Are they having problems printing from other programs?
  
  Are all the work stations reporting the problem?
  
  My thoughts are it is:
  
  1. An bug in LO; possibly specific to openSUSE
  
  2. A local bug in openSUSE
  
  3. the print server has a bug
  
  I have not had any random print problems with LO using Linux Mint 13 
  with a printer directly connected via USB port.
  
  Sometimes renaming the .config/libreoffice/user/3 folder clears up a lot 
  of problems. LO will regenerate a new default folder if it is missing 
  when starting up.

I have just got my machine to stop printing! ha !
I have tried several other apps ( Firefox, Softmaker, Gimp )
and they can still all print.  Calc and Impress can't.
