I don't think that this practicable, if you continue to work with your
document for repeated 'edit, print' cycles.
For batch conversion (and printing) look at
$ aptitude show unoconv
[...]
Description: converter between OpenOffice.org document formats
This package provides a commandline utility which can convert from any
document format that OpenOffice can import to any
document format it can export. It uses OpenOffice's UNO bindings for
non-interactive conversion of documents.
Supported document formats include Open Document format, MS Word, MS
Office Open/MS OOXML, PDF, HTML, XHTML, RTF, Docbook,
and more.

(I haven't tried it myself.)
