FONT Button
Pressing the
Font
button allows you to select fonts and symbol/character
sets.
✒
Notes
When you use the
Font
button, note the following:
• The
Font
button is effective in the HP PCL5C, EPSON FX-850, and
IBM Proprinter XL modes. However the settings are subject to the
current emulation mode. Note that the
Font
button does not work in
the BR-Script 2 mode.
• If the application software supports font and symbol/character set
selection, you do not need to set them with the
Font
button. The
software or command setting overrides the button setting.
• If you want to use optional fonts instead of the printer’s resident fonts,
be sure to install a font cartridge/card that has your preferred fonts.
The printer automatically selects the font that has exactly the same or
similar characteristics as those you set through the software or with a
command. If the installed font cartridge/card happens to have a font of
similar characteristics, the printer will print with an unexpected font.
• You can store the fonts you require on a flash memory card or HDD
card only in the HP PCL5C mode or BR-Script 2 mode when a card is
installed. See “DEVICE OPERATION.”
