USER'S GUIDE
Selecting the Optional Fonts
5–4
After you have installed the optional font cartridge/card, you can
select optional fonts by any of the following methods:
1. Through your application software
2. With a font selection command
3. With the FONT switch
When you select fonts through your application software, follow the
instructions specific to your software. Refer to your software manual
if you need assistance. When you select fonts with a font selection
command, embed the font selection command in your program. See
the Technical Reference Manual, which is optionally available for
this printer.
Notes
When you select the fonts through your software or with a command,
note the following:
You do not need to be concerned about the FONT switch setting.
The software or command setting overrides the switch setting.
Be sure to install the font cartridge/card that has your desired
fonts. The printer automatically selects the font that has exactly
the same or similar characteristics as those you set through the
software or with a command. If the installed font cartridge/card
happens to have a font of similar characteristics, the printer will
print in an unexpected font.
To select fonts with the FONT switch, follow these basic steps:
1. Print out the list of optional fonts in the PRINT FONTS C mode
with the SHIFT and TEST switches.
See "Printing the Test Pattern or Font List" in Chapter 2.
