How to override the default paper size received by a print job

Hi,

Kindly help me with your valid suggestions to solve the below problem:

"How to override the default paper size received by a print job. Ex. The output file is generated with a default paper size of 11x17 and we need to print on 11x14 paper. When printing this file from HP Unix, is there a command to override the size and specify 11x14 in the lp command."

It would be great if some one can help me out of this problem.

Thanks in Advance,
Karthik.

NAME
psresize - rescale and centre the pages of a PostScript file SYNOPSIS
psresize [ -wwidth ] [ -hheight ] [ -ppaper ] [ -Wwidth ] [ -Hheight ] [ -Ppaper ] [ -q ] [ infile [ outfile ] ] DESCRIPTION
Psresize rescales and centres a document on a different size of paper. The input PostScript file should follow the Adobe Document Struc- turing Conventions. The -w option gives the output paper width, and the -h option gives the output paper height, normally specified in cm or in to convert PostScript's points (1/72 of an inch) to centimeters or inches. The -p option can be used as an alternative, to set the output paper size to a3, a4, a5, b5, letter, legal, tabloid, statement, executive, folio, quarto, 10x24 or _glibc, where latter one means the format of the current locale. The default output paper size is _glibc. The -W option gives the input paper width, and the -H option gives the input paper height. The -P option can be used as an alternative, to set the input paper size. The default input paper size is _glibc. Psresize normally prints the page numbers of the pages output; the -q option suppresses this. EXAMPLES
The following command can be used to convert a document on A4 size paper to letter size paper: psresize -PA4 -pletter in.ps out.ps ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
LC_ALL, LC_PAPER These variables are specifying the papertype when used paper is _glibc. For details see the locale(7) manpage. AUTHOR
