PCL or PS Font List

Use the font lists to see which fonts are currently installed in the
printer. (The font lists also show which fonts are resident on an
optional hard disk or flash DIMM.)

To print a PCL or PS font list:

1

Press

[Menu]

until

INFORMATION MENU

appears.

2

Press

[Item]

until

PRINT PCL FONT LIST

or

PRINT PS FONT

LIST

appears.

3

Press

[Select]

to print the font list.

The PS font list shows the PS fonts installed, and gives a sample
of those fonts. The following describes the information that can be
found on the PCL font list:

Font gives the font names and samples.

Pitch/Point indicates the pitch and point size of the font.

Escape Sequence (a PCL 5e programming command) is used
to select the designated font. (See the legend at the bottom of
the font list page.)

Note

For step-by-step instructions on using printer commands to select
a font with DOS applications, see page D-5.

Font # is the number used to select fonts from the printer’s
control panel (not the software application). Do not confuse the
font # with the font ID, described below. The number indicates
the DIMM slot where the font is stored.

SOFT: Downloaded fonts, which stay resident in the printer
until other fonts are downloaded to replace them, or until the
printer is turned off.

INTERNAL: Fonts that permanently reside in the printer.

Font ID is the number you assign to soft fonts when you
download them through software.
