FONT Switch

Pressing the FONT switch allows you to select fonts and symbol/character
sets.

✒ Notes
When you use the FONT switch, note the following:

•

The FONT switch is effective in the HP LaserJet 4+, EPSON FX-850,
and IBM Proprinter XL modes. However the settings are subject to the
current emulation mode. Note that the FONT switch does not work in
the BR-Script 2 mode.

•

If the application software supports font and symbol/character set
selection, you do not need to set them with the FONT switch. The
software or command setting overrides the switch setting.

•

If you want to use optional fonts other than the printer’s resident fonts,
be sure to install a font cartridge/card that has your desired fonts. The
printer automatically selects the font that has exactly the same or similar
characteristics as those you set through the software or with a command.
If the installed font cartridge/card happens to have a font of similar
characteristics, the printer will print with an unexpected font.

•

You can store the fonts you require on a flash memory card or HDD card
only in the HP LaserJet 4+ mode or BR-Script 2 mode when one is
installed. See “CARD OPERATION.”

Setting the Font and Symbol Set in the HP LaserJet 4+ Mode

When the HP LaserJet 4+ emulation mode has been selected, the font and
symbol set can be set separately as the primary or secondary font.

The display shows the following setting menus:

PRIMARY FONT

SELECT FONT p

SYMBOL SET p
