Example when using GTK system-config-printer
SUMMARY
The print manager has no job options setting and the orientations is set to 0
causing an error message to appear in the printer job queue.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install printer using CUPS
2. Start print job
3. Immediately watch queue message.
OBSERVED RESULT
Prints the job but shows following error message in Status Message
"Bad value (0) for orientation-requested, using 0 degrees"

2) Should have a Job Options setting in print manager to set orientation as
well as others.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I believe the portrait orientation should be set to 3, not 0. Here is CUPS
documentation.
https://www.cups.org/doc/options.html (in /etc/cups/printers.conf)
Setting the Orientation
The -o landscape option will rotate the page 90 degrees to print in landscape
orientation:
lp -o landscape filename
lpr -o landscape filename
The -o orientation-requested=N option rotates the page depending on the value
of N:
-o orientation-requested=3 - portrait orientation (no rotation)
-o orientation-requested=4 - landscape orientation (90 degrees)
-o orientation-requested=5 - reverse landscape or seascape orientation (270
degrees)
-o orientation-requested=6 - reverse portrait or upside-down orientation (180
degrees)
