Re: [libreoffice-users] New brothers printer does not appear to print Landscape.

[Helen <etters.h@gmail.com>]

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.
