Report to be printed in the orientation set in the rpt

I run a crystal report from VB. I send the report directly to the printer. The rpt file of the report that i am generating has paper orientation set to "Landscape". When i print the report , it prints in Portrait(setting of the default printer). But, if i preview the report instead of directly sending to the printer, the orientation is what is in the rpt. How to solve this problem ? Has anyone came up with this problem.

thanks
priyaI have a code example in my signature called "VB6/CR Print Setup Dialog Ex." which shows how to preset the printer setting and use those for printing, etc.

Report Subscription to a printer

Does anyone have an idea as to how to send a report subscription to a
printer?
Thanks,
MikeNo built-in way. The ability to print in RS is strictly a client side
method. There is an active X control that gets downloaded to the person's
PC.
RS 2005 ships with a Printer Delivery Sample (Search books on-line for the
phrase).
The other option is to have the subscription put a pdf file in a directory
someplace and then have a program that watches the directory for pdfs and
prints them.
