Landscape printing in linux

Dear All,

Good Afternoon All. I need help.

On UNIX environment we were printing on portrait and landscape with the following command line:

FUNCTION LandsPrint()
LET cmdline = " "
LET cmdline = "lpr -c -n ", copies clipped, " -d", printer clipped,
" -olandscape -otl66 -oc -ovsi5 -o nb -o 12 ", w_reportname
RUN cmdline
Prompt "Report is being sent to Printer - Press Return" FOR Answer
RETURN
END FUNCTION

FUNCTION LandsPrint2()
LET cmdline = " "
LET cmdline = "lpr -c -n ", copies clipped, " -d", printer clipped,
" -olandscape -otl43 -oc -ovsi8 -o nb ", w_reportname
RUN cmdline
Prompt "Report is being sent to Printer - Press Return" FOR Answer
RETURN
END FUNCTION

How could I print in CentOS Enterprise Linux ? I have tried the cpi and lpi but on some documents, I losing characters on the right margin. How can I avoid this ?

Thanking you in advance.
