PQ-8P, PQ-8S

6.3User-Defined Fonts (HP PCL only)

The PQ-8P supports a vast variety of fonts. For a list of the supported fonts, refer to Appendixes A and B. In addition, the User-Defined Fonts feature allows assignment of new or existing font IDs to different printer resident fonts or fonts from an optional font cartridge. Up to 10 new pairs of font IDs and fonts can be created.

The following example assumes an HP 4Si is connected to the PQ-8P and the default font is specified as font 11. The font ID 11 represents the font Courier 10 CPI. If you want to change the default font but maintain the font ID 11, simply assign a new font to font ID 11 (for example, Courier bold 10 CPI). This is done by sending the Host/PC download command &%Z21,0,11(<(12U<(s0p10h12v0s3b 4099T) to the printer. Font ID 11 has now been redefined as Courier bold 10 CPI. Consult the printer’s user’s guide for the information needed to write the string.

In the same manner, personalized font IDs can be assigned to printer resident fonts or to fonts from an optional font cartridge. These fonts can then be called up by using the newly assigned font ID, the same way the standard printer resident fonts are called up.

User defined fonts cannot be used with the ¬F font change commands.

6.4 Color Printing

The PQ-8 allows printing of color on PCL5C-compatible printers such as the HP Color LaserJet, DeskJet 1200C, or DeskJet 1600C printer. Simply insert the color command in front of the text you want to colorize. Return to the “normal” black color by inserting ¬C00. The color commands are:

¬C00 - Black

¬C01 - Blue

¬C02 - Red

¬C03 - Magenta

¬C04 - Green

¬C05 - Turquoise/Cyan

¬C06 - Yellow

¬C07 - White

¬C08 - Black

¬C09 - Dark Blue

¬C10 - Orange

¬C11 - Purple

¬C12 - Dark Green

¬C13 - Dark Turquoise

¬C14 - Mustard

¬C15 - Grey

¬C16 - Brown

For example, to print the word “red” in the color red in the following sentence, type:

This prints ¬C02red¬C00 in red. Alternately, you can select a color

through the Typestyle/color menu of Office Version/400 (V3R1 or later). This menu is accessed by selecting F20 (Format Options), 1 (Document Options), 1 (Document Format), and finally 3 (Typestyle/color).
