DOS is a command line tool that has very primitive tools. The concept of landscape (or legal or duplex or 4-pages-per-page, etc) is meaningless to DOS. It was designed to take a ready-to-print file and send it to the printer. DOS applications are totally responsible to format the output to match the printer. That means that a DOS program needs code for hundreds of different printers and most certainly old DOS programs know nothing about modern printers.<BR /><BR />It's probably time to retire the DOS program(s) or rewrite the programs to provide the appropriate codes for your printer.

Thanks to all that reply. All helps appreciated. <BR />Thanks, <BR />K-girl.</SHARENAME></SERVERNAME> Thu, 24 Jul 2003 01:14:06 GMT https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-microsoft/net-use-to-print-legal-size-in-landscape/m-p/3031814#M2949 K-girl 2003-07-24T01:14:06Z https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-microsoft/net-use-to-print-legal-size-in-landscape/m-p/3031815#M2950 While this forum is for HP Unix, I'll take a stab.
