I have tried using this code but I think I am not passing this to a movie clip correctly. I am trying to print the base level rather than an mc.

this.print_btn.onRelease = function() {
_root.printImage(0);
};

It prints the level however it doesn't orient the movie?

[...] Printing in landscape from Flash Flash developer Steven Sacks has code available on his site that allows you to print a .swf file in landscape format.
