First thing is that you are not using the correct device type for the Ricoh printer model that you mentioned, check the device types that are compatible with your printer using the following sap note:

458047 - Device types offered by Ricoh

This note also lists the features supported by these device types for Ricoh.

And you should be using the wizard provided by SAP, follow this sap note for that:

1036961 - Device type selection wizard in transaction SPAD

Hi,

As the sap note suggests if your device type is set correctly you should be able to flip the page settings from landscape --> portrait & vice-versa.

If it doesn't work the way it is supposed to, please raise a message with SAP & take it up with Ricoh the printer vendor.

This sap note, that I mentioned earlier:

458047 - Device types offered by Ricoh

It mentions about the functions supported:

The ZA001vvv/ZA002vvv/ZA00Uvvv device types support the following

functions:

• Input bin / Output bin

• Stapling mode / Punching mode

• Paper type / Fuser control

• Duplex mode

• Job offset

• Resolution

• Number of Copies & Collation

• EconoMode / Toner saving

• Auto Tray Change/Switching

• Edge Enhancement/Smoothing

• Paper size

• Orientation

• Character set / Symbol set

• Color printing

• Slip sheet

• Edge-to-edge mode

And that mentions "Orientation" so it should support landscape/portrait.
