Solved: T730 won't print correct orientation - HP Support Community

MicheleGMFDG · ‎09-23-2023

Until yesterday, the printer was printing 36" x 24" drawings just fine with a 36" roll. I had not changed anything in the driver or the settings, but now all of a sudden it is rotating the print 90 degrees so there is a lot of paper waste. I have tried everything I know to solve this problem but nothing works. Is this a driver issue? Or what?

Yes, that appears to have been the problem. I did a system restore which took almost all day and the problem was solved.

However, how do I prevent it from happening again?

A driver issue is a real possibility and often caused by a Windows update that triggers a driver refresh and the correct HP drivers get replaced with Microsoft generic drivers that do not support all functions well or at all.
