Inspired by this I tried:

% File a6test.tex
\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\usepackage[a6paper,landscape,showframe,includeheadfoot,margin=7mm]{geometry}

\begin{document}
\noindent Hello \LaTeX
\end{document}

printig with

lp -d a6-kartei -o page-border=single a6test.pdf

I got:

Thus removing the "Dest a6-kartei orientation-requested=4"
option from lpoptions solved the problem.
But I'm sure that I had to have with my SuSE9.1 System both the
LaTeX-File and the printer driver set to landscape.

Anyway thanks for your help and best regards
