Can someone refer me to a board that might help with XP printer driver question? In particular, how to implement DC_ORIENTATION capability of IOemUI::DeviceCapablities(). The orientation of the graphics is not what I need and I can't seem to change it. The documentation says to modify the DC_FIELDS parameter in order to indicate the field to change but
1. I don't get a call to DC_FIELDS.
2. I'm not sure which bit in the devmode->dmFields variable to change.

Lastly, I get the call to DC_ORIENTATION which passes 270 as the old value. I try returning a different value in the *dwResult parameter but nothing seems to change the graphics orientation.
