How to I print a page in horizontal view? Every other printer I have ever used had an option or horizontal or portrait. I would NEVER have purchased this printer if I knew it did not print horizontal views.
Printing in Landscape is a function of the application / software you are using to open, view, configure, and submit the job to the printer.
You also need to know the printer model you have.
Why? Different printers, Operating Systems / versions, and applications / software provide different options and setups.
