Some of the high-energy-physics people here have a microVAX-II/GPX workstation.
They have a DEC LJ250 (a small, color, cartridge printer) on which they
get ``screen dumps'', essentially by selecting a ``Print Graphics'' option
with the mouse.  Everything works more-or-less to their satisfaction, with
the following exception.  All screen dumps come out in ``portrait''
orientation, and they would like to have them in landscape.

Unfortunately, nobody here can find any documentation which says even that
such a thing is possible, never mind how to achieve it if it is.  We can
hardly imagine that it is not possible, and the most popular hypothesis
is that there is some logical name, UIS$SCREEN_DUMP_ORIENTATION or whatever,
which specifies the orientation.

Does anybody have any suggestions?  Thanks.
