The printing is along the length of the paper, as opposed to perpendicular.

How do I change it?
Depends on the application you are printing from, but it's usually under
something called 'page setup' or similar.
Chris -
What application are you using where this problem occurs?
Personally, I wouldn't worry about the PPD file yet. I'm assuming you
are using the recommended PPD file for your printer.
There *should* be an option in the application to choose landscape or
portrait printing.
If you are printing from the command line then see Brian's excellent
solution(s). Brian's post in this thread, that is. :)
Thanks to ALL!
I am at work [not as a programmer] from 9am to 7pm and have not been
able to read and answer your posts, no disrespect intended. I have also
been trying to get info from the Chinese manufacturer, but the language
barrier was impossible to breach.
From the command line -
lpr -o portrait -o cpi=17 -P POS58 /var/www/receipt.txt
FYI I tried to set the orientation from the printer setup. No luck. In
desperation I thought that it was possible from the ppd files.
