I just printed a document that had 2 pages (1 sheet) in landscape while
the rest of the doc is in portrait. The landscape "back" is "upside down"
BUT it does reflect that one *normally*(?) flip pages of landscape from
the bottom instead of from the side as in portrait mode. Don't know
what is considered normal for any individual tho.
User friendly (?) but should have had a setting for "book mode" which
has different properties than a normal landscape mode..?
