It appears that there's a LyXRC variable "print_landscape_flag" which
defaults to
print_landscape_flag = "-t landscape";
You can reset it to something else from the Outputs->Printer pane (Qt
frontend) of the Edit->Preferences dialog. (See the "Landscape:" field.)
string const Converters::dvips_options(Buffer const * buffer)
{
string result;
...
if (buffer->params.orientation == BufferParams::ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE
&& buffer->params.papersize2 != BufferParams::VM_PAPER_CUSTOM)
result += ' ' + lyxrc.print_landscape_flag;
return result;
}
