Selecting a Font and Pitch
Usually, you use your application program to select the font and pitch you want to use in a document. However, you can select one of the printer’s five fonts (in different pitches) with the buttons on the printer’s control panel, as described below. (The settings you make in application programs usually override settings you make from the printer’s control panel.) The pitches available depend on the font you select:
Font | Pitch |
USD | 10, 12 |
HSD | 10, 12, 15, 17, 20 |
Draft | 10, 12, 15, 17, 20, PS |
Roman | 10, 12, 15, 17, 20, PS |
Sans Serif | 10, 12, 15, 17, 20, PS |
