This command is the sequence introducer for downloading existing files.

font area to store the file the printer returns NACK.
When the file is downloaded the printer returns ACK.
If the file contents are incorrect the printer returns NACK. File format to be described in appendix.
So the full sequence for downloading files as font ID 90 would be:
