You don't say what type of files you are printing. I assume .txt.
For all mime type "text/*" files you can use
lp -d printername -o lpi=5.1 -o cpi=7.64 /path/to/text.txt
where lpi: "lines per inch"
cpi: "characters per inch"
You'll have to work out yourself what exact values you'll need to
use for cpi and lpi to get your desired output size.
Oh, and it is all noted down on your CUPS system here:
http://localhost:631/sum.html
# CUPS 1.1.x
http://localhost:23631/help/options.html?TOPIC=Getting+Started
# CUPS 1.2.x
Cheers,
