Thank you, Christian.
I appreciate your willingness to volunteer a different approach, but in
this instance I prefer the direct route.
For more complex situations, I might reconsider that approach.

Your options included portrait, but I thought you wanted landscape?
As I pointed out in the snapshot of the documentation on the site that you sent
me, it clearly states that
• "portrait=n" (please refer back to snapshot of that documentation page in
my previous email)
is the specified method to tell Gvim that landscape mode is the desired print
mode.
As mentioned in the other message by Jürgen, make sure not to quote
values when using :set
In any case, I'd suggest to generate a postscript file using :hardcopy
and then inspect that file using e.g. ghostscript.
The bug was, that vim wouldn't set landscape orientation no matter what you
configured in printoptions in the generated postscript file.
Since you questioned the "portrait=n" method, is there a new "landscape=y"
method, or is there a different documentation page that I should be referring
to instead of the "vimhelp.org" reference?
Where did you find that URL?
That is the URL on the documentation page at
•https://vimhelp.org/usr_90.txt.html#usr_90.txt
under the heading "FROM A PACKAGE".
I updated this page, alsohttps://www.vim.org/binaries.html now
correctly redirects tohttps://www.vim.org/download.php
The ftp mirror has been retired.
Using the information obtained from
•https://github.com/vim/vim?tab=readme-ov-file
is the most recent version (v9.1.1163) uploaded to
•https://github.com/vim/vim/tags
a confirmed functional build?
Yes correct.
Thanks.
Christian
