Yes, and the "default" settings aren't going to help.

You probably will have to modify /etc/cups/cups-pdf.conf and uncomment and change the
#GSCall line.

It may work to change -dAutoRotatePages=/PageByPage to -dAutoRotatePages=/None and add -c
"<</Orientation 3>> setpagedevice".  When making changes make sure the GSCall line has no
line breaks.

This may work to force all outputs to be landscape.
