Printer prints from L.O. Ok, Okular ok and sveral other application. Did find some problems in the install instructions for both printer and scanner. installed brscan4 and brscan- skey. Looks like it is a command line tool with intervention needed on printer. XSANE scans, ok. Also found errors with YaSt handling of scanner install. Manual install worked with corrected commands. Not sure if scanner install with yast is openSUSE 12.1 bug or Brothers. Next step is to install on 12.2 Beta2. Thanks for your help. Is there a brothers trouble ticket where I can add comments or should I just start a new one?

Re: [libreoffice-users] New brothers printer does not appear to print Landscape.
I have a MFC-J6710DW . I'm using the 386 driver, I only found a 64-bit for the scanner which I have not tried yet. My system is hooked up usb2. Printer: mfcj6710dwcupswrapper-1.1.1-1.i386.rpm mfcj6710dwlpr-1.1.1-1.i386.rpm Scanner: brscan4-0.4.1-1.x86_64.rpm (Not installed yet) Went back and tried again. I can print in portrait with lpr and LibreOffice and Okular. on openSuSE 12.1. I have not tried on 12.2 Beta1 as I'm needing to reinstall it (YaST and zypper Quit working). Not sure what to take screen shots of. When this first started Cups reported print job as complete on landscape jobs. No errors in error log. Now job is not even getting to cups. I'll report it to the address you showed below., and I can test fixes if necessary. I think I install the Win driver on my XP guest on Virtualbox and see if it prints.

I'm exchanging email messages with Brother tech support (Linux Support linuxsupp...@brother.com) but haven't found the source of the problem. It does apply only to linux driver, landscape printing is working properly under windblows-7. For me, it won't work in LibreOffice, Eagle PCB (board design), or Okular (PDF view). /Quote -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted I install the brothers Win software on my VirtualBox guest XP system and then printed s document that failed under the linux version. The portrait and landscape versions both printed. I did notice when Win has control of the printer it does not go thru CUPS. Not sure what path it tkes but it works. Finally got on the Brothers website and after creating account I had to leave. Tommorow I will input what information I have.

Re: [libreoffice-users] New brothers printer does not appear to print Landscape.
I had the same problem, and here's the fix: In OO or LO, in the print dialogue, there is a properties button, and from there, Device tab. One of the dropdowns there is Language. It defaults to PDF If you instead select Postscript (Level from driver) then landscape printing works. It's a bug in OO and LO, and can be fixed for each individual printing job. Unfortunately, I haven't learned a way to make the fix permanent.
