Formatting for PostScript landscape orientation (basic mode)

IP PrintWay™ basic mode can format non-PostScript data sets in the landscape orientation for printing on a PostScript printer. To request landscape orientation, you can select a landscape option in the PostScript header field.

IP PrintWay extended mode ignores the PostScript header field. For information about how to print in landscape orientation when you run IP PrintWay extended mode, see Specifying printer commands for landscape printing.

If you select one of the landscape options in the PostScript header field, IP PrintWay basic mode sends this PostScript program to the printer before sending data. This program intercepts the data, formats it, and prints it. This PostScript program does not work if the data to be printed is already PostScript data.

Limitations:

• If you select a landscape option, do not use the same printer definition to print PostScript data sets from a batch application. If you do, an error occurs.
• Do not select a landscape option when you select the email protocol.
• If you select a landscape option, do not specify printer commands in the Document header and Document trailer fields.
