[Dx4win] QSL label definitions / direct QSL printing

Hello

I have a question regarding QSL label definitions. I have two custom definitions for 
two kinds of labels, but each time I do an upgrade, I have to re-enter the label 
parameters.
After an upgrade, I copy the entire "save" folder to the new version's folder, but 
label definitions seem to be stored elsewhere, or am I missing something?
I know, it doesn't take more than a couple of minutes to write down the parameters 
from the old DX4WIN and insert them into the new version, but still... I'd like to 
know where these are stored.

Another issue: I never got down to printing QSLs directly, i.e. without a label but 
straight on the cards. I did try it once, with my Brother HL-5030 laser printer, but 
as far as I remember, I had to rotate the cards 90° because the dimensions of a QSL 
would not allow the standard feeding method. But rotating the cards in the paper tray 
by 90° also meant printing in 'landscape' from DX4WIN, which didn't work and was 
reported as a bug a few months later.
Is it correct that this should work properly now, and has anyone successfully printed 
QSL cards with this type and brand of laser printer?
I also have an Epson Stylus C42 inkjet, I assume it will be easier to use this one. 
Can anyone tell me in a nutshell how to configure DX4WIN to use this printer?

All input greatly appreciated!
