    Hi,
    So I've dusted off my Canon MG 7550 printer and am trying to print a 4" by 6" print in landscape orientation.

    I've checked the settings on the printer display, downloaded the app, checked online but it keeps printing in portrait mode
    :(

    I'm guessing it's a simple setting, but I can't for the life of me find it. Anyone able to put me out of my misery please?

    Thanks,
    Pa.

    Thanks, I've seen that page. I thought that was only for settings from desktop, not on the printer screen itself?

    Thought I was being clever by changing the orientation of the photo on my memory card. Still doesn't work....

    Are you using a mobile app, the printer itself, or PC?

    Tried from the printer itself & the app on my phone.

    I'm not sure about that particular printer, but it seems to me that the phone is automatically selecting the orientation based on the picture dimensions.

    Can you try to crop the photo first in the phone Gallery/Camera Roll, and then try to print?
