Print 6 Slides per Page

Is it possible to have Keynote print 6 slides per page the way PowerPoint for Windows does (3 slides in each of two columns on the page), rather than 6 slides vertically along the left side of the page?

In the Print dialog box, use the dropdown menu to choose Layout, and set up the page as you like.

I can do that, but it just lines up the slides down a column on the left, not in a 2x3 arrangement.

In the Print dialog, in the Keynote options, set it to print individual slides. Then, in the Layout options, set it to put 6 pages on a single sheet.

I can just do 3 per page and 2 pages per sheet as a workaround. But the 6 slides option still only prints in one column down the narrow side of the page, so it doesn't work out too well.

What OS version are you running? In Snow Leopard, the above instructions work as advertised.

I'm pretty sure that's what I did last time...I'll try it again.
