The man page we have for psroff lists the -L flag; I don't know why
yours wouldn't:

PSROFF(1)                 USER COMMANDS                 PSROFF(1)

NAME
     psroff - ditroff to a POSTSCRIPT printer

SYNOPSIS
     psroff [ -tLM ] [ troff options ] [ spool options ] [  files
     ]

DESCRIPTION
     psroff is a  shell  script  that  runs  [di]troff(1)  in  an
     environment  to  produce output on a POSTSCRIPT printer.  It
     uses  psdit  to  convert  ditroff  intermediate  output   to
     POSTSCRIPT format, and spools this for printing. If no files
     are specified, the standard input is used.

     In addition to the standard ditroff options,  the  following
     options are understood by psroff.

     -t   sends the POSTSCRIPT output  to  the  standard  output,
          rather  than  spooling it to a printer.  Note that this
          overrides the meaning of the ditroff -t option; if  you
          want that, run ditroff directly.

     -L   rotate the output 90 degrees (landscape mode).

     -M   sets the printer in manual paper feed mode.
