The printer can have a maximum of 10 fonts, including two standard fonts (Gothic and Courier) and up to eight optional fonts.

The variable n can be any value in the range of 0 through 9, where 0 designates Gothic, 1 designates Courier, 2 designates the first font in option ROM 1, 3 designates the second font in option ROM 1, and so on. The range of n for either option ROM depends on the number of fonts contained in each ROM.

Examples. If option ROM 1 has two fonts and option ROM 2 has three fonts, then the range of n is 2 through 3 for option ROM 1 and 4 through 7 for option ROM 2. If option ROM 1 has four fonts and option ROM 2 has three fonts, then the range of n is 2 through 5 for option ROM 1 and 6 through 8 for option ROM 2.
