I have a document that I want to be flipped / rotated 180 degrees when printed. (This is due to the orientation of label stock in the printer).

There is a property PrintDocument.PrinterSettings.LandscapeAngle but it is read only.

I think this property is influenced by the printer driver and therefore not 'settable'.

Is there a nice way i can rotate the print by 180 degrees without having to do anything too nasty?

You want PrintDocument.DefaultPageSettings.Landscape
