Default How do I print the top of a landscape table on LHS of page?

When I print a Word document containing a mixture of portrait and landscape
pages, all the landscape pages, e.g.tables, print with the top of the table
at the right hand side (long edge) of the A4 paper.

How do I make them print with the top of the table at the left hand side of
the paper, as one would find in a normally bound book?

I use Word 2000, and when viewed on screen the documents read normally,
including the landscape pages.

I guess that is something to do with the way that the printer handles the
paper for which there might be a setting under the Printer Properties
dialog.

Alternatively, just testing here with the free Primo PDF, printing such a
document to a .pdf file results in the landscape page being orientated with
the top of the table at the left hand side of the page that was set in Word
as landscaped. So to first print to a .pdf file and then print that on your
printer should allow you to print out the document in the arrangement that
you want.

Hope this helps.
