landscape printing Unixware 7.1

[vistech1]

I am trying to use lp printing to print a landscape document. Everytime I try, I get a portrait document. does anyone have a suggestion, other than using a third party package? I have tried a fw things, but if someone has definitely printed a landscape document using UNixware 7.1 lp printing, it would be greatly appreciated if you could tellme what needs to be done.

Thank you.

Try this:

lp -d -y landscape ${DEST} ${FILE}

There is an escape charachter for HP printers to change the size 90 degrees(that is from portrait to landscape). IF that character is inserted in beginning of your document, it can be printed. (Refer your HP printer manuals for list of ESCAPE chars.)
