This is a windows-specific question.

 

After generating a plot, I can print from scripts or the command line
with 

 

> dev.print(win.print,printer="local windows printer name")

 

I would like to print in landscape mode. From the menus, I can
accomplish this by changing the properties of the printer before
clicking "print".

However, I tried adding "horizontal=TRUE" to the command, but it gives
an error message:

 

> dev.print(win.print,horizontal=TRUE,printer="\\\\RhoSvr01\\HP LaserJet
8150 PCL 6")

Error in device(...) : unused argument(s) (horizontal ...)

 

I can see from ?device and then ?win.print that, sure enough, there is
no 'horizontal' parameter in win.print.

 

There are many examples like this on the help archives and in the docs,
apparently for other devices,

so I am puzzled how to accomplish what I want.

 

 

BTW,

This is on Windows XP SP2 and

 

> R.version

         _              

platform i386-pc-mingw32

arch     i386

language R              

 

Any help will be much appreciated!
