170 column landscape control chars ...

<esc>[?27 J<ESC>[4w<ESC>[15m<ESC>[?7l<ESC>[1;180s

270 column landscape control chars
<ESC>[27 J<ESC>[4w<ESC>[15m<ESC>[?7l<ESC>[1;270s

don't claim to understand the above.  They were given to me like that
and I just added them to a device control library.  The 270 one only
seems to work on LEDGER size paper.

let me know if there are any other ways to do this, or pick a font!
something similar to enscript on ultrix would be great!
if not then more control characters to put in the library would help a
lot

supposedly these are document in some printserver manual, but I have not

found them yet.
