Fonts And Forms

The printer provides a variety of resident fonts. The emulation you are using determines what resident fonts are available. For example, the LinePrinter Plus emulation provides CG Times, Letter Gothic, Courier, OCR-A, and OCR-B as standard sets of fonts.

With either the LinePrinter Plus or PCL 5 emulations, you can load additional fonts into printer memory from the host computer. When additional fonts are in printer memory, you can then access them in the same way as the resident fonts. Note that if you download fonts from the host computer and do not save them, the downloaded fonts will be lost when the printer is powered off.

You can store forms together with fonts. The storage space for forms and fonts depends upon the amount of printer memory and/ or non-volatile Flash memory space available. You can manipulate different fonts and/or forms depending upon the emulation installed.
