Jan Holesovsky has been working very hard on that. See e.g.
http://marketing.openoffice.org/ooocon2004/thurs_dev.html#D5

The print dialog seems to be a bit of problem though, because the print output 
generated by OOo depends on the printer settings selected in the print 
dialog, so that requires a bit more interaction than currently provided by 
e.g. kprinter.

Cheers,
