Bold Print

Pressing YES prints out the active interface setting:

Off (factory default)

On

Off: The printer prints standard normal-weight characters.

On: The printer prints bolded characters. Bold (or emphasized) characters appear "fatter" than normal-weight characters.* Since bolding is usually reserved for emphasis, rather than paragraph text, bolding does not appreciably slow down the print speed.

Bold characters can also be italicized.

Note: Optical character recognition (OCR) fonts cannot be bolded.

Italics

Pressing YES prints out the active setting:

Off (factory default)

On

Off: The printer prints standard upright characters.

On: The printer prints italicized characters. Italicized characters appear slanted.

Italicized characters can be bolded.

*To make a bolded character from a normal-weight character, the printer simply prints another image of the character slightly to the right of the first.
