I have some old EXECIO code that I use to send HP/PCL commands at the beginning of print jobs for stuff like Tray Selection, Page Orientation, Duplexing.
When it came time to do fonts, bolding and underlining I decided to learn Postscript instead. Basic concept for EXECIO/REXX is _ESCAPE_ = '27'x ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE= '+'_ESCAPE_'&l1o8d66F'_ESCAPE_'(s0p12.5h3T' 'EXECIO 1 PRINT (CC DATA STRING' ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE The ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE string above sets both orientation and selects a smaller font to provide 132 char per line x 6 lines per inch output. Good Luck!
