Strange. We just bought a 5N with JetDirect J2550B, firmware A.05.05, and I
had no problem setting it up as a network printer on the 3000...

Now can anyone tell me how to configure the 3000 to send the output in
portrait versus landscape?  I don't want to use environment files and file
equations, I just want my 3000 print jobs to print in portrait.
