3347.0. "SuperPlan printing problem" by YUPPIE::WILSON (Tony, the HOSS TRUMPET) Tue Jan 16 1990 17:46

I am trying to do sideways printing from this system, but as yet have had no 
luck.  No matter what I choose, it still prints in the normal manner.  What am 
I doing wrong?

    I've tried sideways printing with SuperPlan.  It worked OK.  I'd like
    more control over print density, but such is life.
    
    Go to /OC (output configure).  Since SuperPlan doesn't read your
    system preferences, make sure the printer here matches the one you're
    using.  When you change from portrait to landscape mode, a bunch of the
    options will disappear (they're no longer applicable).
    
    Then try to print.  It appears that SuperPlan sends output directly to
    PAR: rather than going through the regular printer driver.  That's why
    there's so much device-specific stuff in the configuration.
    
    Good luck.
