How to present ViewController in Landscape mode?

HP 2600n - can't print landscape mode?

  • I have aan HP Color Laserjet 2600n on a Mac running OSX (latest). I can't seem to print anything in landscape mode. I have a PDF that the first page is portrait and the second page is landscape and it prints everything in portrait. Help. This sucks.

  • Answer:

    on the mac it's file->page setup. I see it here in my browser. which app are you using? I just rotated a pdf in good ol' preview, didn't even have to use page setup! but it only goes 1 way per print command; until I read this today!!! http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20070312031649116

Unfortunately, you can't have it both ways. All laser printers read an escape code at the start of the print job to tell it which orientation to use. Usually, there is a setting at the printer, which can be overridden by a driver setting.. but you can override both with the data sent as part of the print job... controlled by your software application. If you software is formatting data that would fit best on landscape (like long text lines) and not sending the right command.. the place to fix this is at the software application level. That being said, try setting the printer up to print the first page in portrait and print it out and then set the printer up to landscape mode for the second page and then print it out. This is done through the Print function of whatever software application that you use to print like MS Word, MAC Paint, etc.
