I am using the following code:


 Public Sub Printing()
            try
            Dim pd As New PrintDocument()
            pd.DefaultPageSettings.Landscape = True
            pd.Print()

     Catch ex As Exception
        MessageBox.Show(ex.Message)
    End Try
    End Sub

The layout settings of the printer are at the mercy of the client's machine. I don't think there is anything you can do to modify those from ASP.NET code, or any server-side code for that matter.

Looks like you're missing an important step here.

The classes you are working with need the .NET Framework to run successfully. So, they will work great for a desktop app built with .NET.

However, with ASP.NET the pages are constructed on ta server running the .NET Framework (so far so good). The result of that page is sent to the client. This client may have never heard of the .NET Framework; it could be a text-reader browser running on Unix, or an old version of Netscape on a Mac.

So the bottom line is, the PageSettings does not apply to pages served by ASP.NET; they apply to applications currently running under the Framework.

Does that make sense?
