If the DECPSP (Proportional Spacing) command is set, the DECPSM command sets the tabs and margins as usual, as listed in Side Effects under DECSHORP in this chapter. However, the pitch is stored and is not used until DECPSP is reset.

Notes to Software

This command is provided for backwards compatibility with older printers only. Conforming software should not use DECPSP. Use DECSHORP with Ps = 0 to select the natural pitch for the currently selected font. Use other DECSHORP parameters to select pitches other than the natural pitch.

 

Use DECPSM with monospaced fonts only.

Description

 

The selective parameters for DECRFS are as follows:

0 = Requests both reports (same as 1 followed by 2).

1 = Requests font status (includes all built-in fonts, downloaded fonts).

2 = Requests status of memory bytes available for downloaded fonts.

The host sends this command to request a status report of the fonts available for printing, the memory available for font download, or both.

The parameter Ps selects the type of font status requested.

Notes

Data fields are empty as explained in DECFSR.

Error Handling

If Ps is any value other than 0, 1, or 2, the printer ignores this command.
