These temporary bitmapped fonts are deleted when you turn off or reset the printer. Scalable fonts provide the flexibility

of printing in many different point sizes.

Your printer uses different scalable font formats for downloading fonts to the printer. PCL 6 uses Intellifont and TrueType

scalable fonts. PostScript 3 uses Type 1 and TrueType scalable fonts. There are thousands of different scalable fonts

available in these different font formats from numerous font suppliers.

If you plan to use many downloadable bitmapped or scalable fonts or if you plan to use many different sizes of scalable

fonts, you may need to purchase additional memory for your printer.

Resident Fonts

Your printer is equipped with resident fonts stored permanently in printer memory. Different fonts are available in PCL 6

and PostScript 3. Some of the most popular typefaces, like Courier and TimesNew (PCL 6)/Times New Roman (PostScript

3), are available for all printer languages.

The following table lists all the fonts resident in your printer. See "

Printing a Font Sample List

" for instructions on how to

print samples of the fonts. You can select the resident fonts from your software program, or from the operator panel if

you are using PCL 6.
