I've never used Star Office, but most programs tend to be postscript only
under Linux.  Assuming your printer is supported by ghostscript you should
be able to set up a filter to convert postscript to your printers language.

There are progs with names like magic-filter that do this sort of thing
automatically.  Have a look around the printers dir on sunsite.
