Description of problem: From krita, gwenview, i cannot print in landscape mode, only portrait works. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): ghostscript.x86_64 9.02-1.fc15 @updates-testing ghostscript-cups.x86_64 9.02-1.fc15 @updates-testing ghostscript-fonts.noarch 5.50-24.fc15 @koji-override-0/$releaserver hplip.x86_64 3.11.3a-1.fc15 @fedora hplip-common.x86_64 3.11.3a-1.fc15 @fedora hplip-gui.x86_64 3.11.3a-1.fc15 @fedora hplip-libs.x86_64 3.11.3a-1.fc15 @fedora How reproducible: Allways Steps to Reproduce: 1. open krita or gwenview 2. print, select properties and choose landscape, then print. 3. nothing... Actual results: no landscape printing Expected results: be able to print in landscape Additional info: HP laserjet 1020 usb. Discovered via abrt, since there is no notification of the error. I have to cancel the job in the kde printer applet.
Tried with libreoffice-write, and prepared a landscape document with 2 colums of text and in printed correctly. In the krita, gwenview examples, i was printing pictures, not text. This is the cmdline from abrt when failed: /usr/bin/gs -dQUIET -dPARANOIDSAFER -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -dNOMEDIAATTRS -sDEVICE=cups -sstdout=%stderr -sOutputFile=%stdout -I/usr/share/cups/fonts -c -f -
Please attach: 1. the PPD you are using, from the /etc/cups/ppd/ directory 2. an example file to print from krita or gwenview that fails for you Thanks.

Created attachment 495214 [details] Second PPD Additional Info: I was requested to print something, so when executing hp-setup it was unable to locate the firmware from internet (site down?) so after waiting half a day i was forced to copy it from the F13 partition (since i does not show the url to the firmware for manual download).

Could you please try "Print to File (Postscript)", and then print the resulting file on the command line with "lp -dHP-LaserJet-1020 print.ps", and see if the problem still happens then? If so, please attach that print.ps file. I haven't been able to reproduce the issue here unfortunately.
The command works ok. Additionally, it seems that landscape printing has some issues in kde, see Bug 181290 (https://bugs.kde.org). At least for pdf i can use LibreOffice. For images i might do the .ps trick Additional info: I performed a full F15 release install. This time the hp-setup program was able to download the required plug-in correctly. (so this was tested with the downloaded plug-in) Versions: ghostscript-9.02-1.fc15.x86_64 ghostscript-cups-9.02-1.fc15.x86_64 ghostscript-fonts-5.50-24.fc15.noarch hplip-3.11.5-2.fc15.x86_64 hplip-common-3.11.5-2.fc15.x86_64 hplip-libs-3.11.5-2.fc15.x86_64 hplip-gui-3.11.5-2.fc15.x86_64
I was hoping Print-To-File would also show the problem, so that I could reproduce it here. Does printing directly from gwenview still fail after you've reinstalled? Can you please try "Print to File (PDF)", and attach print.pdf if that fails?
Steps to Reproduce: 1. open krita or gwenview (tested with gwenview) 2. print, select properties and choose landscape, then print. 3. now i get the file printed, but in portrait >> But that is because i think is related to Bug 181290 (https://bugs.kde.org) So, no, it seems it no longer segfaults, it prints either good or bad.
OK, perhaps it was fixed by something in the meantime then.
