Setting Printer Preference - Page Orientation to Landscape

问题

I would like to set the Page orientation to LandScape for printing excel worksheet from my excel Vsto project. Manually page orientation is set from the Printer Preference window which is popped up from 'Print' form.

I need some automation which will set the orientation to LandScape every time user gives print command.

I have noticed that if i set the orientation to LandScape from my excel application, it stays same for if i want to give a print from a MS-word application & vice versa. So there has to be some kind of flag which can be changed from any simple winform application.

Is there any way i could manipulate the properties ?

I could not find any way we could customize the printer settings of any individual printer. Here's the code which worked for me for EXCEL application.

CommonData._WORKBOOK is a static workbook object

Worksheet ws = CommonData._WORKBOOK.Application.ActiveSheet as Worksheet;

var _with1 = ws.PageSetup;

_with1.Orientation = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.XlPageOrientation.xlLandscape;
CommonData._WORKBOOK.Application.Dialogs[Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.XlBuiltInDialog.xlDialogPrint].Show(Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing,
                            Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing,
                            Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing,
                            Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing,
                            Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing,
                            Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing, Type.Missing);

You can try something like the following below should work for you

public void CustPrinting() 
{
   try 
     {
       strPrint = new StreamReader (filePath);
     try 
       {
         printFont = new Font("Arial", 10);
         PrintDocument pd = new PrintDocument(); 
         pd.PrintPage += new PrintPageEventHandler(pd_PrintPage);
         pd.PrinterSettings.PrinterName = printer;
         // Set the page orientation to landscape.
         pd.DefaultPageSettings.Landscape = true;
         pd.Print();
       } 
     finally 
     {
       strPrint.Close() ;
     }
   } 
   catch(Exception ex)
   { 
     MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
   }
 }
