Setting LJ4 Emulation Options
The LJ4 menu lets you make font and symbol settings when you use the
printer in LJ4 emulation mode. Normally you can make these settings
through your software. You only need to use these settings if you are using
software that can’t control fonts.

this Form value, based on the VMI
settings stored here.
