Have sub to set up my Epson CX6000 printer bt it does not set landscape mode or reduction value?

Have been all over the net etc with no results.
Hade the " page.IsLandscape = true"statement in before to no avail.

Code: Select all

Sub FormatPrinterLandscape
Dim sS		as String  	'$     'Style name
Dim oStyle 	as Object	'The current page style


  REM Use the currently active sheet to obtain the page style.
  REM In a Calc document, the current controller knows which sheet is active.
  REM SET SHEET SCALE TO 83%
  sS = ThisComponent.CurrentController.getActiveSheet().PageStyle
  oStyle = ThisComponent.StyleFamilies.getByName("PageStyles").getByName(sS)
  oStyle.PageScale = 83        'Scale document to 83%
  
pageStyles = thisComponent.StyleFamilies.getByName("PageStyles")
page = pageStyles.getByName("Default")

REM SET PAGE SIZE TO 8.5 X 11.0 IN MILLIMETERS
page.width = 27932     '29700
page.height = 21584  '21000

REM SET MARGINS LEFT = .75" RIGHT, TOP, BOTTOM = .5"
page.LeftMargin = 1905
page.RightMargin = 1270
page.TopMargin = 1270
page.BottomMargin = 1270

REM Set Page Orientation TO LANDSCAPE
'page.IsLandscape = true

Dim printerOption(0) As New com.sun.star.beans.PropertyValue
printerOption(0).Name = "PaperOrientation"
printerOption(0).Value = com.sun.star.view.PaperOrientation.LANDSCAPE
thisComponent.Printer = printerOption()

'MsgBox "Set printer to Landscape"



REM NO Header
page.HeaderIsOn = False

rem Add a Footer
page.FooterIsOn = True

End Sub

Would appreciate any ideas.
