    In a new installation, when printing with lpr the output is

    man lpr suggest your are asking for rotated-counter-clockwise for 4 and rotated-clockwise for 5.

    What you say is correct. I thought the message had not gone to
    the list and sent a corrected one. The problem is not witn the -o
    option, but the default orientation used by lpr.
