Hi Mates at sumanagers...
Thanks a bunch for your helps to subject as above. Finally I found
the Log which recorded about the problem (It's been happened before).
SUMMARY:
Problem: How could I setup permanently a network printer as landscape
printer ?? (without interve the hardware, it lets as default)
Config: Solaris 5.6 running in E450/E3500 box
HP JetAdmin Utility for UNIX (Rev. D.02.10)
HP LaserJet 8100
Solution: 1. Define the networked printer in /etc/hosts
# more /etc/hosts
# ....
# ....
# 172.27.33.30 HP8100
2. Define the spooler thru JetAdmin (for example HP8100L)
*************************************************
* MAIN MENU *
* HP JetAdmin Utility for UNIX (Rev. D.02.10) *
*************************************************
1) Configuration (super-user only):
- configure printer, add printer to spooler
.......
.......
.......
5) Printer Status:
- show printer status, location, and contact
3. Make sure those above works fine
4. Go to the /etc/lp/interfaces/model.orig/HP8100L
5. Modify the file using vi, then type /$4
6. insert into options="Landscape raw lpi8 fp12"
7. insert into options="$ options $5"
I also attach captured image of those modification (HP8100.jpg)
(See attached file: HP8100L.jpg)

One thing you can do is install HP JetDirect SW on your Solaris box,
(HP moves it around on their website, you'll find it with a search)
set up the Solaris box as a spooler for the printer.
This will set up HP's filter script (/etc/lp/interfaces).
% lp -d printername -o landscape
% lp -d printername -o portrait
