--- Comment #6 from [email protected] ---
I've added this comment to Bug 50511 too, which appears to still be active, and
covers similar problems.

I'm using currently supported LO  5.0.2.2 on up-to-date openSUSE Leap 42.1.

Brother MFC-J6nnnDW series are A3 capable and as for most such printers feed A4
as well as A3 short-edge first ie Portrait orientation in Print -> Properties
-> Paper dialog.  Latest driver package ver 3.0.0-1 from Brother has PS
parameter "*VariablePaperSize: False". I work around this by having separate
queues for A3 & A4, but these factors create some weird outcomes with LO.

If a new landscape document is set to Format -> Page -> Format: A4,
Orientation: Landscape then LO dialogs for Print -> Properties -> Paper differ
depending on whether selected from File -> Print or File -> Printer Settings. 
The latter shows (greyed-out) paper orientation Portrait (which according to
https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Landscape_Printing, is correct practice). The
former shows (greyed-out) paper orientation Landscape.  Outcome on paper is
equally incorrect, with part of the work only in centre of portrait oriented
paper.

If same landscape document is then set to Format -> Page -> Format: A3,
Orientation: Landscape, ie all that is changed is paper size, then LO  still
shows A4 paper in  Print & Print Settings dialogs, although an A3 queue has
been selected.  Job then prints out incorrectly in portrait page orientation
but scaled up to A3 size.  I've checked /etc/cups/ppd and the PPD file for A3
queue definitely has page size set to A3.
