You mean, if you print from that Dialog and you have selected the 
correct printer in the list, it nevertheless prints to OneNote?

Do you get the printer properties of the selected printer in that dialog?

Are you sure, that the default printer is correctly set in Windows 7, 
not in some LibreOffice dialog but directly in Windows 7 ?

Do you have the problem for new documents or for existing documents? You 
can disable the option "Load printer settings with the document" in 
Tools > Options > Load/Save > General, so that LibreOffice does not try 
to use a printer setting, which is stored in the document, where the 
printer might not be available.

I'm working on Windows 7, but do not have such problems, with neither of 
the LibreOffice versions.

Kind regards
Regina
