More about ESC/P 2

Epson’s enhanced printer control language, ESC/P 2, offers two scalable fonts in sizes from 8 to 32 points. You can use this feature if your application program supports scalable fonts. For DOS-based word processing programs, new ESC/P 2 drivers may be available to enable your program to use your printer’s scalable fonts. Call

(800)922-8911to ask about special ESC/P 2 drivers.

For many graphics-based programs, such as Microsoft Windows, ESC/P 2 works with your software to provide enhanced graphics printing capability. In the Windows environment, you’ll be able to print the Microsoft scalable fonts instead of the Epson fonts.
