NLQ Fonts

The NLQ fonts use 0.10 inch high Gothic characters whenever high quality print or high density is desired. NLQ fonts are limited to Horizontal Orientation only, and the NLQ Font command must be contained within a Graphics Pass. If the NLQ Font command is outside of a Graphics pass, it is interpreted as a Horizontal Repeat command (see Repeating Text later in this manual). The NLQ font is in effect only until the next command is received.

Any horizontal tabs and justification functions (see “Positioning and Repeating” on page 83) used with NLQ characters should be used prior to the ^Sn command. If a Tab or Justification Command is encountered within the NLQ characters, the selected NLQ Graphics font is terminated and a Block Character font is substituted for the remaining printable data.

To select one of the NLQ Graphics fonts, send the following command.
