EPrinting from DOS Applications

Installing Additional Symbol Sets

Additional fonts may have been included in your printer. A separate disk, called the DOS Character Set Installation disk, contains custom files for use with the HP DeskJet Control Panel for DOS, allowing access to special symbol sets.

You only need to install the one file that supports your particular language. If you are uncertain which language is included in your printer, check the serial number label on the bottom of the printer for one of the following codes:

ARBArabic

CYRCyrillic

GRKGreek

HBRHebrew

LITLithuanian

LTVLatvian

THAThai

1Install the HP DeskJet Control Panel for DOS as described earlier in this appendix.

2Put the DOS Character Set Installation disk into your computer’s floppy disk drive.

3From the DOS prompt on your hard disk drive (usually the C:\ drive), type the drive designator for your floppy drive, followed by DIR, then press the Enter key to display the subdirectories on the DOS Character Set Installation disk. For example, type:

C:\>A:\DIR

4Copy the appropriate SYMSETS.DAT file from the subdirectory for the language of your printer to your \DESKJET directory. For example, to copy the file for the Cyrillic language, type:

C:\>COPY A:\CYRILLIC\SYMSETS.DAT C:\DESKJET

and then press the Enter key.

5Remove the DOS Character Set Installation from the floppy drive when the copying process is completed.
