Print a File in Landscape Mode via Command Line

I am missing the Unix command line for printing. Its been many years since I last used one of these commands.
shuva, do you mean something like this?
# /usr/bin/lp -d filename
or
# lp (prints to default printer)
THIS IS A TEST PRINT
control d
I often use the 'lpr' command to print things.
