how to set default page orientation to Landscape

[atagore]

I am a novice...
Is there some JavaScript code that will set IE browser default print orientation to LANDSCAPE and the 4 page margins to .75 ?
This code will allow the end-user to simply click on the WEB browser print icon and walk to the printer without having to use the File=>Page Setup dialog window...

Thank you!

Nope, sorry.


as a side note, you could do this using ActiveX which means

1) it will work in IE only
2)they will get a message saying someone is trying to hijack their system
3) you'd have to set up another script to change their settings back to normal which I don't know if you can capture those values or not
4) after all that trouble, it's just as easy to put a note on their page to change the settings themselves

You can't do this without a third party control. At least that's how I understand it.
