Hi All!

When trying to print text file in a landscape option of lpr :

  lpr -Olandscape a.txt (like in the man pages).

But the text file printed as portrait .

The definition in printcap is as follows:

hp5m|lp:\
        :fc#0177777:\
        :fs#023:\
        :if=/usr/lbin/hplaserpsof:\
        :lf=/usr/adm/lperr:\
        :lp=:\
        :mx#0:\
        :of=/usr/lbin/hplaserpsof:\
        :pl#66:\
        :pw#80:\
        :rm=wizhp5m:\
        :rp=text:\
        :rw:\
        :sb:\
        :sh:\
        :sd=/usr/spool/lpd:\
        :xf=/usr/lbin/xf:

Printing landscape postscript files is fine.

The printer type is Hp laserjet 5M , the printer network card is
Hp jetdirect.

Machine alpha 3000 600 , operating system is DU3.2c .

Best
