In a new installatoin, when printing with lpr the output is 
landscape when it should be portrait.

Both of the following commands print landscape. 

  $ lpr -o landscape <file>
  $ lpr -o portrait  <file>
 
The -o option works

  $ lpr -o orientation-requested=1 <file> prints portrait
  $ lpr -o orientation-requested=2 <file> prints landscape
  $ lpr -o orientation-requested=3 <file> prints portrait
  $ lpr -o orientation-requested=4 <file> prints landscape

When I print a file opened with emacs by means of Ctl-p, the 
result is landscape when it should be portrait.

When CUPS prints its test page, it is normal (portrait)

The operating system is a fresh install and so driversĀ are up to 
date.

I do:

  $ lpoptions -p HP_LaserJet_Pro_M428f_M429f_8264A8 -o 
orientation-requested=portrait

  This has no effect on the operation of lpr
