We have a HPLaserJet III which is connected to DEC 3000.
In the printcap, we set pw= #80.
We try to printout a plain text with small font and more than 80 characters
in a line. The end of line will be truncated if more 80 characters
in a line.
If we set pw=#90 (or any number large than 80), the printout orientation
will be changed to landscape.
My question is :
How to print out more than 80 characters in a line and still get
portrait orientation ( suppose the font is very small, can fit
more than 80 in a line).
Thanks for help!
