I just tried to print from a windows software piece (RAILY 4) that rund via wine. The print job succeeded (it was a railroad layout), but all the text is upside down! The text is located correctly, the drawing itself is not changed, and the text is printed left to right - but the letters are all feet up! And CUPS does not show a possibility to change this, there is no option like "T-Shirt/mirrored printout" or alike for my HP PSC 1410. The driver identifies as "HP PSC 1400 Series, hpcups 3.11.1.19". ... I have no idea who or what is responsible for this behaviour.
Disable printing for the print queue (as root "cupsdisable queue_name") then send the same print job from wine. The print job data should appear as /var/spool/cups/d... file. A assume wine sends PostScript data as print job data. Test it as root with "file /var/spool/cups/d..." which must result ------------------------------------------------------------------- ... PostScript document text ... ------------------------------------------------------------------- If this is true, view the PostScript print job data as root with "gs /var/spool/cups/d..." (hit [Ctrl]+[C] to exit Ghostscript). Afterwards re-enabel printing (as root "cupsenable queue_name"). If the letters are feet up in the PostScript print job data, the software which made the PostScript is responsible (i.e. wine or whatever software which is called by wine). If the PostScript print job data looks correct, some filtering software in the printing system is responsible. Perhaps it is the actual printer driver, see http://en.opensuse.org/Concepts_printing for the difference between CUPS and the actual printer driver. Because you use the HPCUPS driver from HPLIP, have a look at https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=630696#c1 In short: The HPCUPS driver is know for strange results in some cases. In this case you may try out the HPIJS driver from HPLIP.
