How to change the system default printer to Landscape system wide

[Just Me]

I want to programmatically change the paper orientation of the systems
default printer in such a way that the new orientation shows for the printer
under:

Start/Printer and Faxes

Can anyone tell me how to do that?


I have some unmanaged code that no longer works for some unknown reason.



Thanks

Same as Visual Basic 6.0's way. You should use Win32 API
"SetPrinter()". and check PRINTER_INFO_2.pDevMode.dmOrientation
member.
