Re: [libreoffice-users] Printing specific pages in 4.1 writer

Last time I checked, Windows version did not have the --- "Use 
LibreOffice dialogs" in the "Print dialogs" section.

I do not think the Print dialogs would be, or should be, listed under 
open/save dialogs section.  That would not make sense.   Are you saying 
the "print dialogs" check box is actually listed in that section of the 
"General" dialog box?

Well, I have not installed 4.1 yet, but the "Print dialogs" option was 
shown on the DEB 64-bit version [Ubuntu 12.04 and 13.04 installed] and 
not on the Windows version [Win7 professional and home premium installed]

When I was having all my issues with my printer[s] not duplexing 
correctly, it seemed that most of the people who tried to help were 
Windows users.  None of the even suggested the "print dialog" 
check/uncheck option.  After a few weeks, I just started experimenting 
and found that checking the "print dialogs" option would make the Epson 
Artisan 810 printer duplex correctly.  The HP Laserjet 2300dn duplexing 
worked either way.  Now that I have a Cannon MG6220 to replace the 
Epson, I have not unchecked that box to see if the duplexing still worked.
