Font Selection

Standard fonts of the PostScript and PCL 5e languages are displayed on the following pages. The
PostScript fonts shown are the visual equivalent of the Adobe fonts with the same names.

A PostScript compatible file system is provided for storing downloaded fonts or other files. At this time,
PCL 5e does not support storing downloaded fonts on a hard drive.

Fonts that are downloaded with a print job are lost when the language changes or when the power is turned
off. PostScript fonts can be permanently installed on the hard drive. Refer to your software documentation
for font installation procedures.

Selecting Fonts from Application Software
Fonts can be selected through your application software after you have set up your hard disk with the
necessary printer files and font files. Refer to your application software documentation for details.

Selecting PCL 5 Fonts using Embedded Printer Commands
Some applications allow embedded commands to be entered in your file from within your document. When
an embedded printer command is entered, the printer performs a font search to match the certain font
characteristics, e.g., spacing, pitch, point size. Printer commands for PCL 5 are included in Section 5.

NOTES:
1. Temporary soft fonts that are downloaded for a specific document are deleted when the font printout is generated; and they do
not appear on the font printout.

2. Downloaded permanent soft fonts remain resident in the printer until they are replaced with other fonts or until the printer is
turned off.

3. PostScript fonts listed are the visual equivalent of Adobe font names and are not the actual Adobe fonts.
