Hello everybody,
I am having an odd problem prining landscape:
The situation:
I am having a W2K Domain here with a samba 3 as PDC and
samba-printserver via cups.
When printing from my linux box to my local cups which forwards the job
to the remote samba which then forwards it to Cups on the server which
forwards it to the printer (HP LaserJet 5Si/5Si MX PS) all works fine.
[confused? ]
linuxbox->local cups->sambaPDC->servers cups->jetdirect->printer
But when there is a windoze box with cups-printer driver installed
printing landscape to the printserver I get an A4 page portrait _but_
only the lower part of it is printed on in landscape with half of the
page cut off...
