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.
