Resident Font Activation Methods

Fonts resident within the Printer may be activated using the following IPDS commands. Note that some
fonts have restrictions on allowable font activation methods.
Load Font Equivalence
The Load Font Equivalence (LFE) command maps font local identifiers, specified within text, graphics or
bar code data, to font Host Assigned IDs (HAIDs) and Global Resource IDs (GRIDs).
If the GRID specified in the LFE command matches a GRID contained in the printer, the font is activated.
Activate Resource (Load Resource Equivalence)
The Activate Resource (AR) command (previously known as Load Resource Equivalence) maps Host
Assigned IDs to global names of another format. The format for the global name is identified by a
resource type and resource ID combination.
If the Printer has a resource that matches the global name in the AR command, that resource is activated.
The following combinations of Resource Type and Resource ID Format are supported by the Printer.
