The following orientation options are available.

If this option is not specified the command will not be sent so the printer’s default value 
will be used.
Example: The command to specify landscape orientation is “lp –o landscape filename”.

If the pitch is specified the net_est451c program will always select the Courier font; oth-
erwise the default font is used. The following options are used to select the font pitch.

In all the cases shown above the Courier font will also be selected. When the pitch is 
changed the font size will automatically be scaled to the appropriate size.
If this option is not specified, the default pitch and font will be used.
Example: The command to specify 8 characters per inch is “lp –o pitch=8 filename”.

The number of lines to print on a page can be specified with the following option.

As this equipment is a page printer we cannot change the physical length of a piece of 
paper so the actual effect of this command is to change the value for lines per inch so 
that the requested number of lines is printed on the page. The actual page length may 
differ from this value if the top margin or the text length option is used.
If this option is not specified the PJL command will not be sent so the printer’s default 
value will be used. The minimum page length allowable is 5. If value is less than 5 page 
length is set to 5.
The command to specify 66 lines per page is “lp –o pl=66 filename”.
