ascii test , print options

["Rob Fantini" <robertfantini@xxxxxxxxx>]

 I can't figure out howto get ascii text to print landscape from command
line. I'm using RedHat 7.0 + LPRng.

 Here are my printcap and /etc/apsfilter/~/apsfilterrc :
# APS2_BEGIN:printer2
# - don't delete start label for apsfilter printer2
# - no other printer defines between BEGIN and END LABEL
apslj5|Printer2 auto:\
    :lp=:\
    :rm=192.168.1.13:\
    :rp=lpd:\
    :if=/etc/apsfilter/basedir/bin/apsfilter:\
    :sd=/var/spool/lpd/apslj5:\
    :lf=/var/spool/lpd/apslj5/log:\
    :af=/var/spool/lpd/apslj5/acct:\
    :mx#0:\
    :sh:
#
apsfilterrc:
# don't delete these settings
#
PRINTER='lj5mono'
PAPERSIZE='letter'
METHOD='ascii'
RESOLUTION='default'

#
# additional configuration follows
# insert settings as seen in /etc/apsfilter/apsfilterrc
#

 To try and print landscape I've tried

lpr -C ascii -P apslj5   file

lpr -Z landscape -P apslj5  file

lpr -C ascii:landscape  -P apslj5  file

 plus many others.


How do I send options to the apsfilter to print landscape etc?

 I;d also like to print more than 1 page per sheet. I checked
all the docs I could find, if there is a doc which answers my question let
me know where to get it...


thanks in advance
Rob
