Lp Print commands

How do you forward page while printing a report in Unix? Example: I notice the print was misaligned on pages 100-120, How can I forward the printer to start printing at pages 100 and end at 120?

Check your man page - may be different than what I am looking at.

lp -P 100-120 myfile

-P can only be used if there is a filter available to handle it; otherwise the print request will be rejected.
