Hi again Ken,
There is some odd going on here. I don't use
LO very
often, most of my writing is done with Lyx, which then outputs as a
PDF and I print from there. Have just looked at LO and found that
when it was asked to print, to either my little Brother laser,or an
elderly HP Deskjet, the landscape paper option was greyed out,
just like yours. These results came on a desktop, running MX-15
Linux. Looked as if LO was deciding that the files would fit onto
portrait and not giving me the option to change.
I'll do some more digging. Think I have LO on a laptop with XP,
will dig it out .Perhaps somebody else will pop upon the forum
with an answer.

This was brought out in an earlier thread. Go to Print -> options
tab and check "Use only paper size from printer preferences."
That should enable paper sizes and orientation selection in the print
dialog.
HTH.

Also, Click the Format Tab (at top of LO Page) about halfway down
the popup
is Page, Select that and you have a whole range of options, including
Landscape.

Now, if all that fails. I have had the same symptom under Opensuse. If I
select output as postscript instead of PDF it prints ok.
