Ill try to explain easy, but Im all confused.

1 terminal services 2000 english, with HP laserjet 1020 swedish driver
1 Win2000 swedish client
1 WinXP SP 2 English with HP laserjet 1020, connected to USB, same driver as
server
1 winXP swedish client

I connect från winXP client as user, I can print to the local printer that
is session created. It works, but the prints comes out as landscape. And you
cant change it in the driver.

I connect from my win2000 client as admin and it prints on the session
printer fine.

I connect from winxp as admin, and it prints landscape.

I connect from winXP swedish client, log on as admin and it works fine. BUT,
when I log on as a user, it prints landscape.

This make no sense to me, admin logon works from one computer, but not from
all, and I cant see the reason.

Printer installed on client is set to print A4, and A4 available paper in tray
Printer installed on the server, is set to print A4, but avaliable paper is
letter. This shouldnt make any different, i think, cause it works to print
from some clients.

Any ideas?

Re: Print landscape on session printer and cant get it working

Irratic behaviour is one of the frustrating symptoms of printer
drivers which are incompatible with TS. And this one is just that,
as documented by HP:
