Well, I found the reason:
hwgui seems to add a line job with wrong parameters

job,589,836,2.83,2.83,utf8
the same line as if it wat in protrait mode
without regarding the the setmode(2) command

If I don't add a line, when I close the system printer box, cups adds
this line:

job,836.00,589.00,2.83,2.83,utf8

which invert the page size values, and it works

Adding a line at the top of the file, don't allow cups to add the line,
and I save the file with the bad job line

Can you have a look to what is wrong in hprinter.prg ?

Thanks
