LINE DRAW This font is available ONLY in portrait orientation with 12 cpi spacing, 12 dot height and medium stroke weight. The standard print test contains a print sample (the default character set) of all the resident fonts. Before loading soft fonts in your printer, you must expand the memory capacity, using the optional 256K byte memory card (or standard PCMCIA Type 1 memory cards). * The instructions for the installation and use of the optional font cards and soft fonts are supplied with the individual options. Two independent fonts, primary font and secondary font, are always active in the printer. All their characteristics can be modified independently, one at a time. You can alternate between the currently active primary and secondary fonts using the command codes "SI" and "SO". FONT HANDLING USING COMMAND CODES Down-Line Loading of Fonts This section contains a summary of the command codes which handle the optional font cards. For further and more detailed information, refer to the manual supplied with the specific font card. With the optional font card inserted and selected, you can use the following command codes to assign a name and ID to the font required, load and store it in the printer and clear it. ┌───────────┬────────────────┬─────────────────┬─────────────────────────┐ │ ASCII │ Decimal │ Hexadecimal │ Description │ ├───────────┼────────────────┼─────────────────┼─────────────────────────┤ │ESC)snW... │ 27 41 115n 87 │ 1B 290 73 n 57 │Name of Font to be loaded│ ├───────────┼────────────────┼─────────────────┼─────────────────────────┤ │ESC*cnD │ 27 42 99 n 68 │ 1B 2A 63 n 44 │ID Assignment for Font to│ │ │ │ │be loaded. │ ├───────────┼────────────────┼─────────────────┼─────────────────────────┤ │ESC*cnE │ 27 42 99 n 69 │ 1B 2A 63 n 45 │ASCII Code of Character │ │ │ │ │to be loaded. │ ├───────────┼────────────────┼─────────────────┼─────────────────────────┤ │ESC(snW... │ 27 40 115n 87 │ 1B 28 73 n 57 │Bit Map of Character to │ │ │ │ │be loaded. │ ├───────────┼────────────────┼─────────────────┼─────────────────────────┤ │ESC*c0F │ 27 42 99 48 70 │ 1B 2A 63 30 46 │Clears all fonts loaded. │ ├───────────┼────────────────┼─────────────────┼─────────────────────────┤ │ESC*c1F │ 27 42 99 49 70 │ 1B 2A 63 31 46 │Clears all Temporary │ │ │ │ │Fonts loaded. │ ├───────────┼────────────────┼─────────────────┼─────────────────────────┤ │ESC*c2F │ 27 42 99 50 70 │ 1B 2A 63 32 46 │Clears Last Font loaded. │ ├───────────┼────────────────┼─────────────────┼─────────────────────────┤ │ESC*c4F │ 27 42 99 52 70 │ 1B 2A 63 34 47 │Stores Font loaded as │ │ │ │ │temporary. │ ├───────────┼────────────────┼─────────────────┼─────────────────────────┤ │ESC*c5F │ 27 42 99 53 70 │ 1B 2A 63 35 46 │Stores Font loaded as │ │ │ │ │Permanent. │ ├───────────┼────────────────┼─────────────────┼─────────────────────────┤ │ESC(nX │ 27 40 n 88 │ 1B 28 n 58 │Selects Primary │ │ │ │ │Identifier for Font │ │ │ │ │loaded. │ ├───────────┼────────────────┼─────────────────┼─────────────────────────┤ │ESC)nX │ 27 41 n 88 │ 1B 29 n 58 │Selects Secondary │ │ │ │ │Identifier for Font │ │ │ │ │loaded. │ └───────────┴────────────────┴─────────────────┴─────────────────────────┘ (ALL-11/21/94)
