Default Printing multiple pages on 1 sheet

I am trying to print some custom postcards. I would like to design the
postcard on one page in Word and then print 4 of them onto 1 sheet of 8
1/2x11 paper. (so that all i have to do is cut the sheet in half and then
half again.) I have been able to get most of it done. However, when i go to
print, the psotcards are printed with the wrong orientation. When you cut
postcards out, they are 4" wide by 5.5" tall instead of the other way around.
I have changed the orientation and have tried it both ways. The outcome is
the same. Any help is appreciated.

Try using the Avery 8387 postcard from Tools | Letters and Mailings |
Envelopes and Labels. These are 4.25" high and 5.5" wide (on Letter
landscape).
