Typeface
The Star LaserPrinter 8111 uses Courier font as its default EX-800 font.
You use the Select Emulation superset command to switch into another
emulation to select a cartridge or downloaded font, but you won’t be able to
bring that font back into EX-800 mode. That’s because EX-800 emulation
always starts with Courier as its default font.
Underline
The underline command under EX-800 emulation puts underlines under
spaces as well as characters. To turn underline on or off you send this
command:
<ESC> - n
If n is an odd number, underlining is turned on.
If n is an even number, underlining is turned off.
Master Select
The Master Select command is a shortcut you can use to specify which font
you want to print with. Master Select lets you combine several commands in
one- half of all the font attributes with one fell swoop. Master Select also
cancels the features you do not select with it.
The only restriction is that you can’t combine condensed or monospaced
pitches with proportional spacing. If you mix them you’ll just get propor-
tional spacing.
To select among the various print options, use this command:
<ESC> ! n
For the value of n you just add up the values of each of your desired PRINT
modes in this table:
PRINT MODE
n
10 pitch (pica) 0
12 pitch (elite) 1
proportional 2
condensed
4
bold (emphasized) 8
bold (double-strike) 16
extended 32
