Hello managers,

i wanted to know how to print in landscape from the CDE-panel
(with drag and dropping onto the printer-symbol...)

Our solution was to create a new printerqueue with ":pw#132:" instead
of ":pw#80:" in /etc/printcap. Then (for my boss) it's easy enough to
type an additional "L" to the printername instead of entering some option
in the upcoming print-window.

My call at Dec's Customer Support does not reveal any available option
for landscape printing with the (dtlp ?? / lp ??) which works "behind"
that CDE-button.

My thanks for their help go to

With regards,

Bernt Christandl
