I don't know anything about printer control sequences, but I can see that you have the wrong slash. You want something like:
/bin/echo "\033"
There must be a better way to do this, though. Isn't there a '-o <option>' you could use to control this?

ln03jaof(8) System Manager's Manual ln03jaof(8)
NAME
ln03jaof - Filter for the Japanese LN03S-JA printer
SYNOPSIS
/usr/lbin/ln03jaof [-c] [-h host] [-i indent] [-l length] [-L locale] [-n login] [-w width] [accounting_file]
OPTIONS
Prints control characters. Specifies the host name of the job owner. This name can contain Japanese characters. Specifies the amount of
indentation. The default value is no (no indentation). Specifies the page length in lines. The default value is 66. Specifies the printer
codeset. This value must be a valid locale name. The default value is ja_JP.deckanji. Specifies the login name of the job owner. This name
can contain Japanese characters. Specifies the page width in columns. The default value is 132.
OPERANDS
Specifies the file to record accounting information.
DESCRIPTION
The ln03jaof filter is used to filter text data for the LN03S-JA printer. The filter handles the device dependencies of the printer and
performs accounting functions. At print job completion times, accounting records are written to the file specified by the af field in the
/etc/printcap file.
The ln03jaof filter can handle plain text files and files that have been preprocessed by nroff. Either kind of file can contain non-ASCII
characters. The filter translates nroff control sequences for underlining, superscripting, and subscripting into the proper control
sequences for the LN03S-JA printer.
The ln03jaof filter can be the specified filter in both the of and the if fields in the /etc/printcap file. For a description of these
fields, see printcap(4).
The LN03S-JA printer can be configured to use the software on-demand loading (SoftODL) mechanism to print user-defined characters (UDCs).
See i18n_printing(5) for a description of SoftODL.
To enable SoftODL printing, set the ys field in /etc/printcap to 256. You can also set the default SoftODL database, style, and size by
using the odldb and odlstyle options of the ya field. If you specify a value for the yt field, use fifo. For more information on these
fields and associated options, refer to printcap(4).
NOTES
The lpr command supports a number of options and associated arguments to enable localization features supported by various printers. The
following can be used with the ln03jaof print filter: To specify the SoftODL database path To specify SoftODL font style and size
For a complete description of the -A option and its arguments, refer to lpr(1).
ERRORS
The lf field (default value is /dev/null) in the /etc/printcap file specifies the name of the error log.
