Hi, Some time ago, I switched from LPRng to CUPS. I thought I had tested everything I needed so everything seemed to work fine, until I had to print a postscript file (created with latex using the landscape option, converted from dvi to ps using dvips).
When I open the file in gv, it is shown as landscape, but when I send it to the printer, using lp -o landscape <filename>.ps, it is printed incorrectly i.e.: it seems that cups sends the landscape output (as seen in gv) straigt to the printer (where the pages are fed in portrait); it seems that cups does not rotate the page 90 degrees to adapt it to the way paper is put in the printer. When I browsed through the ppd file (HP LaserJet 6L: foomatic + ljet4), I found "*LandscapeOrientation: Plus90" but I do not know where | if it is used. Any idea what might be wrong? P.S.: when I used LPRng, this worked fine (using the ljet4 filter from the magicfilter package). -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Those who do not understand Unix are condemned to reinvent it, poorly." -- Henry Spencer
