Printronix Windows Driver

A TrueType font can be downloaded from a PC through the Printronix
Windows Driver.
1. Load the Printronix Windows driver provided with your SLPA on the
Manuals and Utilities CD on Windows 2000/NT/XP.
2. Once the SLPA driver is installed on the PC, right click the SLPA driver
and select Properties.
3. Click the "TT Font Download" tab to access all the available system
TrueType fonts.
4. Select the TrueType font(s) from the "Available System TrueType fonts"
you want to download.
5. Click the "Download" button to download font(s) to the SLPA while it is
online.
Create And Send Download File – Online (PGL Only)
A TrueType font can be loaded by creating a file that appends a PGL
command to the font and then sending that file to the SLPA. Use the PGL
FONTLOAD command:
~FONTLOAD;FontName;FontSize;DISK
where
FontName - TrueType font name, e.g. arial.ttf
FontSize - TrueType font size, e.g. file size for arial.ttf
DISK - Specify the download location to Flash
For example:
~FONTLOAD;arial.ttf;60548;DISK
Insert binary data of arial.ttf here...
END
After the file is created, it can be copied to the appropriate I/O port of the
SLPA while the SLPA is online, just like any other print file (for example: copy/
b filename.ext 1pt1).
