|     Iain,
    
    For the LPS40 use /PARAMETERS=(PAGE_ORIENATION=LANSDSCAPE)
    
    this is about the only thing I can get to work apart from using
    the left hand corner of a� sheets of paper :-)

| 76.3 | Yup...thats what the LPS40 will do | ELBOW::DRAPER | Steve Draper | Sat Oct 17 1987 21:05 | 10 |

    Tony - I think you have hit on a problem that currently can only
    be solved by using a bit of postscript programming to force the
    LPS40 to do what you want. By default, it will do exactly as you
    describe.
    
    There is a more detailed discussion of this problem in the notes
    conference CLOSET::DOCUMENT. Press Kp7 to add it to your notesfile.

| 76.5 | Is there a PS_??? que? | CHEST::RUSSELL | ACR - Another Crescent Refugee | Tue Mar 13 1990 14:21 | 12 | 
|     With LPS20s an  40s, you usually have a specieal PS que name,
    so if the LPS is call FRED, you should(!) have a PS_FRED que.
    
    We didn't do anything special with them at UCG, just followed the
    standards....
    
    If you can't find a que own there, either contact the local I.S.
    help desk, or find Jerry Thompson - he's hiding somewhere down there!
    
    Peter	(who should be in Solent tomorrow, if all goes well!)
