I just upgraded to the latest version of Pages for iOS, and it seems I have lost the ability to print in landscape. Even if the document itself is in landscape orientation it still prints in portrait. In fact, documents that are in landscape orientation that printed just fine last week now print in portrait as well. Same documents, same printer, the only change is the Pages upgrade. Any ideas how to fix this?
Thanks!
For Numbers... (essentially the same process I believe the previous answer took)
I guess that actually printed in portrait, but it was rotated in the pdf, so everything worked out.
No, not a great bug at all. Or at least it's failed UX.
Bingo! Apparently if you save a "preset" (I had one for "Black and White"), that preset INCLUDES the page orientation, even though the print dialog has NO way to edit the page orientation.
This is a stupid bug.
Having this problem for the first time. It happend since the upgrade to MacOS 10.13. Printers are Ricoh, (several types of PostScript Printers). A new install of the printer driver (PPD) works, but only until shutting down the macs. When restarting the Macs the problem is back : Pages doesn't print landscape anymore.
And… we only work with Pages ( By the way : Fantastic software!… but not this problem!)
on my iMac I have just got this problem with Calendar which has stopped printing in landscape. This has only happened since upgrading to 10.13.1. Also the orientation choice seems to have disappeared from the "print" page. After pressing "continue", a message about "calculating layout" flashes across the screen. This is rather infuriating and stops one distributing a hard copy of busy diary days.
For the past two weeks, I have had the same problem. I just updated to OS 10.13.2 and it is still not fixed. I delete my printers, then re-install and it is fine if I do not touch the document. But if I play with the document (change font, spacing, line spacing etc) it goes back to Portrait and in order to print, I again have to delete and re-install printers. My Canon inkjet has the same problem as my HP printer.
Please fix.
sinnabor replied earlier and that sorted the problem for me. The default setting for the printer seems to store the page layout (but secretly - so you cannot see this) in 10.13 which is a change from previous versions of OS 10. I deleted my default setting and made a new one. All okay now.
Thanks, but I think I have found where I was going wrong. I have been so used to choosing the page orientation in my print dialogue box, that I did not look for it under File-Page Setup. One I chose that it prints ether way. Thanks.
Thank you!! I have been frustrated and using Word as a "work around" for this issue, which is not ideal for the things I'm working on and have searched and searched for hours trying to figure this out! You have literally made my week! It is a stupid bug. I don't know how these community support pages work but I feel like your answer should be bumped to the top and shouted from mountain tops to help people like me who have invested (read: wasted) hours trying to figure this out. Thank you 1 million times!
I updated two days ago to High Sierra version 10.13.2 and it won't print in the landscape setting now. The print preview shows portrait only. In the document format it shows landscape but when I command P it changes. Any thoughts?
Here's what Sinnabor posted a while back and it completely fixed this same problem I was having. Hopefully that's all it is for you!
"Bingo! Apparently if you save a "preset" (I had one for "Black and White"), that preset INCLUDES the page orientation, even though the print dialog has NO way to edit the page orientation.

In other words, switch your print setting to "default". 🙂
Good luck!
There is a problem with Pages and Numbers MacOS 10.13.2 Numbers 4.3.1 Pages 6.3.1
The printing dialog (final) does NOT show the landscape or portrait orientation choice.
Preview.app has the orientation choice.
When changing to landscape in the pre-printing preview mode of Numbers or in Pages when you create a landscape document, all will be wrongly printed in portrait cutting the side; bogus.
Very frustrating. I couldn't make any of the other suggestions work so what FINALLY worked for me was to take the calendar view I wanted, export (I put mine on my desktop), open that exported calendar, it came up in landscape and then came up in landscape in print. So I now have my landscape print job. What a work around that was. Not sure why things changed in the print program but now adds way more work to s simple print job.
I am also having the printing issue. No landscape. It will print landscape IN a portrait.
Also, I've noticed, since the update, my iPad will NOT remember my printer. Every time now I have to "select printer" it used to be saved.
Has anyone else found a solution to this issue? I print from my iPad a LOT.
Which printer model are you using?
We have same problem with the Epson NX430. Documents are clearly in landscape, but the printer only prints them in portrait. I don't think it should be a printer setting, but I will check at home after work.
Using iPad 2 with iOS 7 update and Pages update.
Pages won't print in landscape?
