Printing from DOS Applications
E
Installing Additional Symbol Sets
Additional fonts may have been included in your printer. A separate disk, called
the DOS Character Set Installation disk, contains custom files for use with the HP
DeskJet Control Panel for DOS, allowing access to special symbol sets.
You only need to install the one file that supports your particular language. If you
are uncertain which language is included in your printer, check the serial number
label on the bottom of the printer for one of the following codes:
ARB Arabic
CYR Cyrillic
GRK Greek
HBR Hebrew
LIT Lithuanian
LTV Latvian
THA Thai
1 Install the HP DeskJet Control Panel for DOS as described earlier in this
appendix.
2 Put the DOS Character Set Installation disk into your computer’s floppy disk
drive.
3 From the DOS prompt on your hard disk drive (usually the C:\ drive), type the
drive designator for your floppy drive, followed by DIR, then press the Enter
key to display the subdirectories on the DOS Character Set Installation disk. For
example, type:
C:\>A:\DIR
4 Copy the appropriate SYMSETS.DAT file from the subdirectory for the language
of your printer to your \DESKJET directory. For example, to copy the file for the
Cyrillic language, type:
C:\>COPY A:\CYRILLIC\SYMSETS.DAT C:\DESKJET
and then press the Enter key.
5 Remove the DOS Character Set Installation from the floppy drive when the
copying process is completed.
