I'm going to be shouted at for this, but it needs to be said, because it may 
tell you what's really causing the problem.

In the past I always put the servername into client.conf.  A couple of months 
ago I was told very firmly that I was wrong to do so, as it would stop 
printer-browsing occurring.  I don't have any local printers, so it had never 
caused me any problems, but, bowing to the experience of others, I removed 
the reference.  Everything seemed to work well enough, so I wasn't worried.

Now, in FC6, I am able to print from most other apps, as was said in the bug 
report, but I couldn't print from OOo2.  I have just put the printer 
reference back into client.conf, and now I can print without any problems 
whatsoever.

It looks as though there is something specific in the way that OOo looks for 
the printers that doesn't work without the servername being set.
