The @page size CSS style would be the way to do that, although I'm not sure this is a widely supported method. I know of no other way though.

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. @page {
  2.   size: A4 landscape;
  3. }

Because javascript usually call's the browsers Print function and from there you have to choose landscape it would be hard to do set the printer to Landscape.

There are solutions, but they are browser specific.
