Selecting PCL fonts

The printer font list provides PCL printer commands for selecting fonts. (See “Printing a list of available printer fonts” on page 121.) A sample section of a font list is shown below.

There is one variable box for entering symbol sets and one for entering point size. Unless these variables are entered, the printer will use defaults. For example, if you want a symbol set that contains line- draw characters, select the 10U (PC-8) or 12U (PC-850) symbol set. Other common symbol set codes are listed in the “Common PCL Printer Commands” section of this chapter.
