Selecting the optional fonts

After you have installed the optional fonts, you can select optional fonts using any of the following
methods:
1
Through your application software
2
With a font selection command
3
With the control panel menu settings.
When you select fonts through your application software, follow the instructions specific to your software.
See 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 Guide. Please call a
Brother authorized service representative or Brother Customer Service for references to the Technical
Reference Guide.
To select fonts with the control panel setting menu, follow these basic steps:
1
Press any of the Menu buttons (+, -, Set or Back) to take the printer off line.
2
Press + or - until INFORMATION appears on the LCD display.
3

7
Press Set to proceed to the next menu level, and then press + or - to select HP LASERJET, EPSON
FX-850, or IBM PROPRINTER.

Press the Set button to select the emulation for the fonts you want to select HP LASERJET, EPSON
FX-850, or IBM PROPRINTER.

Press + or - button to select FONT NO, and then select the font number of the font you want.
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 control panel setting. The software or command
overrides the printer setting.
■Be sure to install a fonts package that has the fonts you want. The printer automatically selects
the font that has exactly the same or similar characteristics as those you have set through the
software or with a command. If the installed fonts package does not happen to have a font of
similar characteristics, the printer will print in an unexpected font.
