Yes, that's how i understand the directions. By the way, the "online" 
help, which should be less confusingly called Base's help file, is 
erroneous; it claims that the print function works within Base and that 
there's a print icon and a print entry in the File menu. Looks like 
there are still some bugs that need to be squashed.

This page explains everything in more detail:

BTW, it's on a help forum for Base, where your friend will find 
friendly, fast, and competent help:

And here are the help forums for the other OpenOffice programs:
