When I try to print a pdf ( could be also other file format, but I didn't tested ) from okular
the orientation is always landscape. Obviously I cannot print this way and had to switch to document viewer or gimp... pretty boring.
Any idea how to fix the problem?
Thank you

@moderator:
Following link is marked as solved so I had to open a new one because solution didn't work for me an probably I' will have no answer to the topic marked SOLVED:
https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-802296-highlight-pdf+print.html
Anyway I do not mind if you want to merge the topic...
Sorry for troubles, bye

Portrait PDF's print OK for me in Okular, but landscape PDF's print across the middle of a portrait sheet. If this is the problem you have then

File > Print > Properties > Set Orientation to Portrait

should make it print correctly

Unfortunately is not a problem about setting the correct orientation...
I also tried to print landscape or portrait and the result is the same: portrait oriented...

Recompiled okular
reconfigured cups removing the printer hp photosmart c5280 and adding it again
using the new
/usr/share/ppd/hpijs/HP/hp-photosmart_c5200_series-hpijs.ppd.gz
solved the problem...
