Selecting Fonts
Selecting fonts is rarely done manually, due to the use of WYSIWYG
(What You See Is What You Get) application software, which enables
you to control the look of your output from the computer monitor.
There may be times, however, when you want to print older text files
without going through application software. At such times, you can
print files straight to the printer, using the printer’s default font. Any of
the printer’s resident fonts can be set as the default, as described in the
following section.
Changing the Font
Number Setting
You can set the printer’s default font at the Control Panel. Table 4.5 lists
the procedure. The factory default is 0 (zero). The ‘=X’ indicates the
current setting, the ‘=N’ indicates a new setting, and the asterisk (*)
indicates that the new setting has been entered.
