Orientation Orientation refers to the layout of the image on the page, and does not affect the way that media feeds into the product. NOTE: Nearly all software programs establish the orientation for the printed page, so the page orientation in the driver is useful only for the few software programs that do not set an orientation. The Orientation group box contains two options: ● Portrait: The top edge of the document is the shorter edge of the media. This is the default orientation. ● Landscape: The top edge of the document is the longer edge of the media. In addition to the Portrait and Landscape orientation options, you can select the Rotate by 180 degrees check box. This creates a landscape or portrait orientation in which the image is rotated 180°. This setting is useful for printing preprinted media. For example, if the return address on an envelope is smudged, try using this setting and feeding the envelope so that the return address area is fed into the product first. Toggle orientation between portrait and landscape by clicking the document preview image. Selecting the Rotate by 180 degrees check box does not change the document preview image.
