I have an ASP page which the users will be printing through File Menu of their browsers. I want the page to print only in 'landscape' mode, even if the user printer settings are set to portrait. Is there something that can be done through javascript or otherwise to change the print settings of client machine to landscape?

look into CSS, you maybe able to specofy the paper size for pronting, but not all browsers support it.
