The current macOS print dialog includes a portrait/landscape chooser and a separate "reverse orientation" switch (disclosed under the Layout options) to choose reverse-portrait/landscape. I don't have my other systems in front of me but I seem to remember that the CPDB print dialog on Linux also supports all orientations?
> 3. Concern here is whether client choice of Landscape orientation impacts printer ability to do transformations such as inserting staples, bindings, etc. I just want to make sure that what we decide is congruent to what printer optional components require as far as stapling positions, etc. I'm more soliciting information here so we can make informed decisions, rather than critiquing current specs. If client heuristics are what's best then maybe let's make that more solidified in terms of behavior.
I think we can (continue to) provide guidance regarding finishings, but client UI is generally outside the scope of IPP - we can provide the necessary information and offer guidance, but there is no way for us to "enforce" that a Client use that information...
