Re: Printer stopped doing autorotate

[Pat Barber <mboceanside@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The PRTQLTY is not in the device description. It's in the PRTF, which has
most of the options that affect the appearance of a report. Not all, but 
most
features must be changed in the PRTF.

If the printer does not have a prtf, then it will use a default prtf, 
which could be
one of several.

Printing can be a very complex issue, which is why there are so many
manuals on the subject.

Get in the Infocenter and look at "Basic Printing", which happens to be
a 334 page manual. That will get you started.
