PCL or PS font list
Use the font lists to see which fonts are currently installed in the product. (The font lists also show which fonts are resident on
a hard disk or flash DIMM.)
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:
z
Font gives the font names and samples.
z
Pitch/Point indicates the pitch and point size of the font.
z
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 about using printer commands to select a font with MS-DOS programs, see
“Common
PCL 5e printer commands” on page 232

product is turned off.
