I enabled the debug logging and attempted to print both a PDF and a PS file using both "lp -d <printer> -o landscape <print file>" and "lp -d <printer> -o orientation-requested=4 <print file>" but see no errors in the error_log.  If I now go to the PPD can I make the change and just save the driver definition file in the installed directory or do I need to re-create the printer and respecify the PPD in order to pick up any changes made?
