You're better of just creating a tmpfile with the one page and printing that Assuming 66 lines per page with no page feed (ASCII 12) embedded: Code:
# $1 = page number pr +"$1" bigfile | awk 'NR<67' > tmpfile tmpfile now is a 66 line file to send to lpr See man pr to change page length |

Code:
sed 's/^L//g bigfile | pr +"$1" | awk 'NR<67' > tmpfile where ^L is ctrl-L. |
