Appendix B

Available Fonts and Barcodes

All character fonts and bar codes available with the Printer are described in this section. Each font and barcode have a name associated with it for use in programming. Human-readable fonts have numeric names while bar code fonts have alpha names. Uppercase alpha names will print bar codes with human-readable interpretations, while lowercase alpha names will print bar codes only.

Fonts 0 through 8 use the slash zero (Ø) conventions for distinguishing between the zero and the letter O. The slash can be removed with the label formatting command Z. These fonts are non-proportional (monospaced) fonts, all of the characters take up the same amount of space when printed. This is helpful when using variable data in a fixed area. The sizes of these fonts are shown in Table B-1.

The Triumvirate font number 9 is a proportional font, each character will take up a different amount of space when printed. For example, the letter W will be larger than the letter I.

Listed below are a few of the 29 scaleable font symbol sets that are accessible:

(US) ISO 6: ASCII Symbol Set, font code S00

(DN) ISO 60 Danish/Norwegian Symbol Set, font code S00 (IT) ISO 15: Italian Symbol Set, font code S00

(GR) ISO 21: German Symbol Set, font code S00

(FR) ISO 69: French Symbol Set, font code S00 (E5) ISO 8859/5 Latin 5 Set, font code S00

(E2) ISO 8859/2 Latin 2 Set, font code S00 (DT) DeskTop Symbol Set, font code S00

For a complete list of the scaleable font symbol sets refer to the Programmer's Manual.
