This was an issue at my office, so I'm afraid some of the details are going to
have to wait until Tuesday. From memory, I can tell you this:

There were two machines involved in my experience. One was an amd64 with 32-bit
XP connected directly to an HP printer (don't remember exact model or driver
version).  The other machine was a P4 with 32-bit Ubuntu 7.10 and with CUPS
connect via SMB to the HP printer on first machine.

I realized shortly after I posted this issue that I should have tested on other
OOo components. I will get you the missing details on Tuesday.

@rainerbielefeld:
You and I are in agreement, I think, that it is best if "the printer uses the
document settings as the current behaviour works". Though, I don't understand
what you're implying when you say you "doubt that printer settings should be
taken over by OOo". The current behavior is for the printer to use the document
settings, and for the program to ignore the printer settings (at least the
Landscape option). What I am asking for is an acknowledgment from the program to
the user that this is intended behavior along with a pointer to the correct
place to change the setting. This is simply to prevent them from scratching
themselves bald before resorting to Google to figure out why they can't print
the damn thing in landscape mode... as I did. Again, more details will follow on
Tuesday.
