I don't know how to do this in NetBSD (or any other Unix), but you the
"printout" looks like you need to configure NetBSD in a way that makes it send a
CR _and_ an LF to the printer.

That is, if I got you correctly and the printout will look like:

line1
     line2
          line3
               .
                .
                 .

If it is:

line1
     line2
     line3
      .
      .
      ., instead I have no idea


Ciao, Eike
