It had never occurred to me to rotate the page in the software!! > Chuckle, ymmv I guess. But a larger problem is that once set for landscape, that printer is now stuck in it and I can't find a place in the normal printer configs, cups, kprinter, spadmin furinstance, that will switch it back to portrait. I came across a story I wanted the wife to read, and from firefox, it printed the web story in landscape, with a somewhat larger than normal font. So a 2 page story used 3 pages of paper.
So how do I go about, without running OOo again to change it, the default orientation of that printer?
