can turn banners off in /etc/lp/interface/printername, but also in the printer setup.
i.e. Jetadmin or hppi setup page, (can modify existing) additional parameters, banner page =off.
some printrer modelss are on by default, some off

If you are talking about banner page, you can use the -o option with lp:

# lp -o nb -d printer_name

OR you can edit the printer interface file in /etc/lp/interface and change banner options to "no".

Vijay, i have found this documentation for turn off the LP banner page...

Depending on the type of spooler script, do either:
a) Edit your /var/spool/lp/interface/"printer name" file, and disable
the banner page. Note that if you are using the JetAdmin tool, the
script will instead be /var/spool/lp/interface/model.orig/"printer
name" The most commonly used means of diabling the banner page is
changing the BANNER variable's value from "yes" to "no"
b) Newer interface files (in /var/spool/lp/interface/*) may call
/usr/sbin/rlp; if your model script does this then insert the
following line before the /usr/sbin/rlp statement:

BSDh="-h"

The model script would now look something like:
...
shift; shift; shift; shift; shift
# Added the no banner option here
BSDh="-h"
/usr/sbin/rlp -I$requestid $BSDC $BSDJ $BSDT $BSDi $BSD1 $BSD2
...

I HOPE HELPED YOU
