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. The additional fonts can be loaded into the printer memory using the download procedure or using host commands. The additional fonts can be loaded into RAM or Flash memory. If the additional fonts are loaded into RAM, they will be lost when the printer is reset or powered off. Additional fonts are accessed by host commands.

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.
