USER’S GUIDE

Selecting the Optional Fonts

After you have installed the optional font card, you can select optional fonts by any of the following methods:

1.Through your application software

2.With a font selection command

3.With the Font button

When you select fonts through your application software, follow the instructions specific to your software. Refer to your software manual if you need assistance. When you select fonts with a font selection command, embed the font selection command in your program. See the Technical Reference Manual, which is optionally available for this printer.

✒Notes

When you select the fonts through your software or with a command, note the following:

∙You do not need to be concerned about the Font button setting. The software or command setting overrides the button setting.

∙Be sure to install the font card that has your desired fonts. The printer automatically selects the font that has exactly the same or similar characteristics as those you set through the software or with a command. If the installed font card happens to have a font of similar characteristics, the printer will print in an unexpected font.

To select fonts with the Font button, follow these basic steps:

1.Print the list of optional fonts in the PRINT FONTS C mode with the Shift and Test buttons.

2.Find the font slot and font ID number on the list.
