That's odd. In LO 4.3.5 on my Opensuse setup, and earlier ones as I 
recall, the choice of LO versus OS dialogs doesn't affect whether the 
PDF or Postscript option appears under the device tab of print 
properties. I'll have to check on other systems I have access to in 
order to see there is a difference.
One thing I've just noticed is that under Tools-Options-Print, it's 
possible to deselect PDF and the standard print format, and then the 
printers default to postscript. Very useful when dealing with oddities 
of HP drivers.

I just use postscript from driver. Since it worked for me, I've not felt 
any urgent need to explore the others, though I certainly would if there 
were still problems.
