No idea how to tell CUPS-PDF to print Landscane by default.
My printer is named Cups-PDF.
Prior to modification this is the printer's info...
[root@f29bk ~]# lpoptions -p Cups-PDF
copies=1 device-uri=cups-pdf:/ finishings=3 job-cancel-after=10800 job-hold-until=no-hold
job-priority=50 job-sheets=none,none marker-change-time=0 number-up=1

printer-state=3 printer-state-change-time=1556084401 printer-state-reasons=none
printer-type=8450124 printer-uri-supported=ipp://localhost/printers/Cups-PDF
then
[root@f29bk ~]# lpoptions -p Cups-PDF -o landscape=true
[root@f29bk ~]# lpoptions -p Cups-PDF
copies=1 device-uri=cups-pdf:/ finishings=3 job-cancel-after=10800 job-hold-until=no-hold

printer-location printer-make-and-model='Generic CUPS-PDF Printer (w/ options)'
printer-state=3 printer-state-change-time=1556084401 printer-state-reasons=none
printer-type=8450124 printer-uri-supported=ipp://localhost/printers/Cups-PDF
So, now any file printed *without* specifying orientation will be printed as landscape.
The important thing to remember is "Application Defaults" will override the printer defaults.
An example of this is Thunderbird. Its print dialog defaults to "Portrait" and will
override the default setting.
Hi Ed,
Thank you!

I see both
landscape=true and
orientation-requested=4
I wonder if they conflict?
