Fonts, Bar Codes and Graphics

The specifications for fonts, bar codes and graphics depend on the printer emulation. The emulation is a printer programming language, through which the host can communicate with your printer. There are two printer programming languages for all models FM4402, FM4602 and FM4603; they are PPLA and PPLB.
