Selecting Fonts

Default Font

66
Fonts are selected through the software you are using.
Look in your software documentation for topics such
as "font selection," "base font," "printer setup," "print
options", "font appearance", "change font," or "select
type."
Here are a couple of simple rules to remember
regarding font selection:
1) Do not mix PCL and PostScript fonts in the same
document. The controller must switch
personalities in order to print one font versus the
other, and it cannot do this halfway through a
print job. Instead, it will try to substitute a
suitable PCL font for the PostScript font being
called for, or vice-versa, and your document will
not look right when printed. For this reason, you
should use all PCL or all PostScript fonts in a
single document
2) Be sure to use the correct printer driver for the
fonts you are using – either PCL or PostScript.
The default font depends upon the printer language/
driver you are using. If you are using PCL, look
under Default Font in Chapter 3, PCL Printing, in
this manual. If you are using PostScript, look under
Default Font in Chapter 2, PostScript Printing, in this
manual.
