Additional Fonts

Additional fonts are available as follows:
When you print a document, the software used to create the document
may download additional fonts. These downloaded fonts can include
TrueType fonts available from Windows and Macintosh software.
Note: When you have the PostScript option, documents previously format-
ted with TrueType fonts print using PostScript Type I fonts when the
TrueType font is not available. The machine automatically substitutes
the TrueType font with the closest matching PostScript Type I font.
You can download additional soft fonts from diskettes to your printer
using a software utility designed for this purpose. Software of this type
includes Adobe Type Manager, which you can use to download Post-
Script soft fonts as necessary.
Downloading Soft Fonts (PCL only)
Before downloading soft fonts, consider the following:
Downloaded fonts take up RAM and hard disk memory on your printer.
Therefore, you may want to limit the number of fonts you use at any
one time. If you need to use numerous fonts other than those resident
on the printer, you should expand the printer RAM.
When more than one person is using the machine as a printer, you
should decide which fonts will be downloaded, and the ID numbers to
be used, before they are downloaded. When the printer is connected
to a network, the System Administrator should be consulted before any
fonts are downloaded.
