Using Font Cards
When the printer is in HP emulation mode, you use the SelecType
font source menu to specify the source of the font, whether the font
is internal, on a font card, or downloaded from your computer.
Then you use the SelecType font number menu to select a font from
the font card. The following section describes how to select a font
from a font card in HP emulation mode. Chapter 2 also describes
how to use the font source and font number menus.
When the printer is in LQ or FX emulation mode, you do not need
to specify the font source. To select a font from a font card, you use
the SelecType typeface menu as described in Chapter 2. If you are
using font card 5430, you can select OCR-A (33) or OCR-B (32) from
the LQ-FX typeface menu.
Selecting a font in HP emulation mode
To select a font from a font card in HP emulation mode, follow these
steps:
1.
Make sure the printer is off line. Then open the printer cover.
2. Press SelecType to enter SelecType mode. The SelecType light goes
on.
3.
Press MENU until the left digit on the display is 2. This is the font
source menu.
4. To select the font card you want to use, press or to change
the right digit on the display. Select
1
if the card is in slot A (the
top slot) or 2 if it is in slot B (the bottom slot).
Note:
The EPI-4000 does not let you use SelecType options that
are not available on your printer. If you cannot display a
1
or a
2,
your font cards are not installed properly or the desired font
cannot be used with the current printer mode. See the section on
inserting a font card earlier in this chapter.
5. Press SET to save the font source setting.
