Small presentation (about 5 slides).  Handout view shows empty boxes with no
content, regardless of the number of slides/page.

Workaround is to print them from the printing menu.

I miss the preview thumbnails too, but currently it is the intended behavior.
The Handout tab shows only the layout template. More details in bug 100616.

I can replicate the behaviour reported at the start of this issue:

Environment & Versions:
Powerpoint MicrosoftOffice2010, and OpenOffice 4.1.1 running side by side on
Windows XP SP3
Using Intel(R) Pentium(R) Dual CPU E2180 @ 2.00GHz

Reproduction steps:
1. Open attachment provided in comment above – slide is shown with content
displayed
2. Click handout tab 
3. Slide is shown without content displayed, with empty “thumbnail” boxes

(I can confirm that slides can be printed successfully from this state and that
this behaviour is also seen with a default template using Impress)
My observations on this behaviour are as follows: 
1. The Handout tab is sitting alongside Normal, Outline, Notes, and Slide
Sorter and is the only one of these 5 views which does not show the contents in
the slides. So this is inconsistent across these views. It is reasonable for a
user to assume that Handout in this setting will show the contents of the
slide, see Handout.png
2. The view -> Master contains Slides Master and Notes Master both of which do
not show the contents of the slides. 
3. I quote the Handout help page on Impress:
“Switches to the handout master page, where you can scale several slides to fit
on one printed page. To modify the number of slides you can print on a page,
open the Layouts task pane and double-click a layout.”
Since it is described as a master page, that would imply that it is a page
indicating the overall layout of the handouts where the user can customise the
whole slide deck handout arrangements.
4. When opening a presentation in Powerpoint and viewing the equivalent
functionality, Handout is in the Master Views section as the “Handout Master
View”, and the contents of the slide is not shown.

It is in fact possible to view slide contents in Handouts for using the
following steps: File -> Print. The Document dropdown, choose Handouts, see
FilePrintDocHandout.png

I think that this reported behaviour is a bug, albeit minor. The current
appearance of Handout would be more consistent if the Handout view was moved in
with other Master types, so found through the view tab -> Master
So I think that a possible fix of moving the Handout to the Master types group,
rather that adding contents as the user is requesting, would be a good solution
here for this minor issue.

This issue has been reported before. It is a duplicate of
