OpenOffice - printing direct from the command line

Quick question:

Is there any way to invoke Open Office from the command line,
such that it takes the specified file and prints it directly?
I.e. without needing any User Interface interaction?

We've got a requirement to print out a couple of hundred
Word files, and I'd rather not have to sit there doing each
one by hand!

Or if anyone's got any ideas for an alternative approach
to tackle this, I'd love to hear it.

Thanks

Dave
