[CS-FSLUG] OpenOffice and networked printer

Libranet 2.8 (Debian based distro) with openoffice 1.1.1 from sid and a
networked HP Deskjet 640C using cups.

Does anyone know how to set up a networked printer in OpenOffice.org
1.1.1?
I did try the 'Printer Administration' tool but it's beyond me.
I do have the printer recognized and working with OpenOffice on the
'local' box (the one with the printer attached) but can't get it working
with OpenOffice on the other machines connected to our small lan (all
other apps can print to the remote printer).

I did write and ask the folks at OpenOffice.org and their only ray of
hope to Joe average is that in release 2.0 OpenOffice will work with
'cups'.

So, any geeks know how to set up networked printers in OpenOffice?

Blessings,

Nigel
