I am interested if there is already a builtin option, too.
I have done it just a few minutes ago with the utility psnup from 
package psutils.
You can pipe your ps-file to the psnup utility and then to lpr again.

Have a look at the manpage for the option to get 2 pages per sheet and 
how to make the pipe chain, if you don't know.
