CALC: 1-line 8-column table: screenshot of attempted PRINTING

PRINTING
Seemingly a very old problem but still relevant:
When printing a table that is wider than possible for Portrait mode (e.g. one line, 10 columns with 10 characters each), then print preview will ONLY use portrait mode and 2 pages containing a few columns of the one-line table only. Changing the "paper orientation" from "automatic" to "landscape" does not have any effect.
Extremely annoying e.g. for presentations, printout etc
Does the same for all printers 
Thanks for resolving this issue

You need to format the page properly.

The issue with the print dialog ignoring the change to landscape orientation has been resolved since LibreOffice 7.4. Please update to that version as 7.3 will not see further updates.

(And also follow Miguel-Angel's recommendation to format the page in landscape, if not done already)
