You missed the point. They do not use your printer or it’s driver. They print on THEIR printers with THEIR drivers. You cannot change the settings of THEIR drivers. The only thing you can do is change YOUR copy.

Let’s assume you have a typing paper sized letter and you want it to be landscape. You have your page set to 8.5W X 11.0H and print landscape. Doesn’t work at the USPS. Change your page to 11.0W X 8.5H, and then upload.

I’ve gotten around the fact that I don’t have MSWord.

I now would like to know why my landscape postcard comes out as portrait when I upload it to USPS online?

Anybody have experience doing p-cards with this rather clunky service?

Landscape or portrait is determined by the print driver. Theirs are set on portrait. Make adjustments and upload again.

I have my laser as my default. I set it to landscape today but it came out like it did.

Perhaps I’ll do it again using my inkjet’s driver?
