Ricoh printers set up as remote printer will not print landscape

I am trying to print to a Ricoh Aficio 650 from HP-UX server version 11.0. I have downloaded the driver from the Ricoh web site and did successfully use it to create a remote print queue. The problem I am having is despite subitting reports with the lp command using the "-o landscape" option, the output still prints in portrait mode.

did you try -o landscape or -olandscape?

If you defined it as remote printer any options that you pass with -o are not going to work. They do not work with remote printers. It is just a dump printer when configured as remote printer.

You need to add that printer as network printer. You can also try to add it as jetadmin printer with addqueue.
