z/OS LPR is strictly following the standard (IETF RFC 1179), which calls
for using x'0A' (line feed) rather than x'0D0A' (carriage return, line
feed). Hurray, standards. :-)

There are a couple easy solutions often available:

1. If you're printing to a Hewlett-Packard LaserJet printer, or similar,
then refer to this technical note for instructions:

https://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21084064

Some other printer models offer comparable LPD queue names to accomplish
the same thing.

2. The printer itself may have a configuration setting to append (or
prepend?) CR to LF, typically somewhere in the PCL settings menu.

If these approaches don't work, I might have a couple more exotic ideas.
