i'm using Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy Heron), and the only work around that works
for me is the one described by aurorius. basically, i couldn't find the
"Job Options" tab. either i'm stupid, or else it is changed in my
version of CUPS (which is 1.3.7-1ubuntu3).
you can read my long description of the bug and fix here:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=6858372&postcount=10
but all of this information is included above, or in references cited by
the above listings. but i'll summarize the fix cited above:
i'm using Ubuntu 8.04 (really Kubuntu 8.04) Hardy Heron. what i did was
edit /etc/cups/printers.conf and add the line
Option orientation-requested 3
just above </Printer> everywhere it appears in the file. for example:
ErrorPolicy retry-job
+ Option orientation-requested 3
</Printer>
you must be root to edit the file. to do this with sudo and vi:
% sudo vi /etc/cups/printers.conf
you should probably save a backup copy of the file before you edit it.
after you edit the file you must restarts the Cups daemon. try:
% sudo /etc/init.d/cupsys restart
