Selecting PCL 5e fonts

Print a PCL font list to view the command for each internal font (see “PCL or PS font list” on page 173). A sample section is shown below. Notice the two variable boxes for symbol set and point size.

	These variables must be filled in, or the product 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
	table in “Font selection” on page 235.
Note		Fonts are either “fixed” or “proportional” in spacing. The product contains both fixed fonts (Courier, Letter Gothic, and
		Lineprinter) and proportional fonts (CG Times, Arial, Times New Roman, and others).
		Fixed-spaced fonts are generally used in applications such as spreadsheets and databases, where it is important for
		columns to line up vertically. Proportional-spaced fonts are generally used in text and word processing applications.
