I can confirm this bug with a networked Brother printer. I set the printer's
settings to automatically rotate documents (System Settings -> Printer
Configuration -> [My Printer] -> Job Options -> Orientation -> Automatic
Rotation). I can print portrait PDFs just fine. Landscape documents
automatically set themselves as landscape in the print dialog (which is
correct) but they print as portrait. It is only until I set the orientation to
portrait in the print dialog that the page prints correctly (as landscape). I
am using Kubuntu (if it matters).

Qt: 4.7.0
KDE Development Platform: 4.6.1 (4.6.1)
Okular: 0.12.1

OpEd:
I think this bug is annoying and needs to be fixed but I think it is
unfortunate the way some have reacted to this bug. I recently installed a new
USB printer (not the one listed in this comment) and all I did was turn the
printer on, plug it in, and it just worked with KDE. The time and effort that
has been put into the printing system of KDE is amazing and I am truly
appreciative for that. The fact that I could plug in my USB printer and have it
just work without any configuration is amazing and shows how much time the
developers of KDE have put into the various subsystems.
