CHAPTER 2 PCL - 111
"LOCUNIT=" specifies the location unit of the font which is selected at present. The value field of the Set
Status Readback Unit command is related to the value returned.
For instance, if the printer font which is selected at present is a bold 12 point Presentation bitmap font which is
selected from a cartridge, and a font entity request with the location type set to 1 is produced, the response will
be returned as follows.
PCL
INFO FONTS
SELECT="<Esc>(2U<Esc>(s0p10.00h12.0v0s3b11T"
LOCTYPE=5
LOCUNIT=1
For instance, suppose the printer font which is selected at present is unbound scalable Dom Casual font with the
features below:
downloaded (font ID of 78)
temporary
Roman-8(specified for printing)
secondary font
18 point
When an entity request is produced with the location type set to 1(selected at present), it returns the response
below.

Font extended response
The font extended response supplies a method to return the name and internal ID number of the font as well as
the "SELECT=" line. It is the same as a font status response since "SELECT=", "SYMBOLSETS=",
"LOCTYPE=", and "LOCUNIT=" are returned in the same way. With regard to a font extended request, it
returns the two additional keywords, "DEFID=" and "NAME=" as follows.
"DEFID" specifies the internal ID number of the font which is shown on the test print ( font list ). This is
the number which is used to select the font as the default font from the control panel of printer or from PJL. The
"DEFID=" number is made of two parts, which are a location and an ID number. The locations which are likely
are as follows;
I
- Internal
C
- Cartridge (printer with single cartridge)
Cn
- Cartridge (printer with multiple cartridge/card when n is specified by printer.)
S
- Permanent download fonts
For temporary download fonts, it returns "DEFID=NONE" because temporary download fonts do not have an
internal ID number.
The printer assigns the internal ID number of a temporary download font with the Font ID (ESC*c#D)
command. This internal ID number differs from the downloaded ID number assigned to a downloaded font.
It returns "NAME=" only for font extended status requests. The name of the font is the same as shown on the
font printout.
For instance, it returns the font extended response for the printer's internal bitmap LetterGothic font and a
downloaded unbound Portugal temporary font as follows.
