Landscape Printing

I need to print a document in landscape mode (using IE6). I see the
@page directive, but I can't get it to work. I have searched this
forum, but don't see many articles on printing landscape that are
relatively recent.

Is there still no reliable way to print LS with IE6? That's our
company standard, so I can't tell our VPs to change their browser.

Not supported by IE.

Meadco do an ActiveX that's pretty good. Tied into IE of course, but if
you can live with that, then it can certainly improve your printing.

I've done label-printing apps before where I needed to place the text
exactly on a page of custom stationery. This control gave me control of
the browser's print margins, that I couldn't achieve with CSS.
