Hi

Since I presume you know the type of printer then do this.

1)export MANPATH=/opt/hpnpl/man:$MANPATH

2)man printerscriptname

see ls /opt/hpnpl/sh to choose

This documents all of the options available
for this script and the printers supported.

3)Install the printer

4)Either
4a)Give the correct options when you print
or
4b)cd /etc/lp/interface/model.orig
vi printer

change
orientation="def"
to
orientation="l"

Then landscape is default

pitch="def"
to
pitch="c"

Compress is then default
