Connection Successful
If the connection to the printer is successful, then no user intervention is
required throughout the remainder of this operation. The Get From Prin-
ter function is initiated, and the Configuration Utility copies the printer
configuration into the working configuration.
This utility communicates with the 6820 Printer to find out the current
parameter settings and which font modules are loaded. The name, version,
and size of these font modules are then displayed on the Get From Printer
screen.
If the operation is successful, you are returned to the Main Menu and the
printer configuration is loaded as the working configuration. You can view
or modify the working configuration by selecting a
Modify Printer Con-
figuration option.
Modify Printer Configuration
This set of options allows you to view or change a working configuration,
including adding fonts from disk (on the host computer), deleting printer
fonts, and changing parameters settings.
Include Control Program is a switch that determines whether to include
the printer control program when saving the working configuration to the
printer. Click this box to change the setting. When checked, the control
program is included the next time you save the printer configuration.
Generally, you only need to update the control program as new versions
become available. The control program is named NPFL6820.MOD.
Font Selection
This option, selected from the Main Menu, selects fonts that are available
on disk, or deletes existing fonts. A variety of different international fonts
are also available in the toolkit for the 6820 Printer.
Clicking
Fonts from the Main Menu takes you to Font Selection where
you can perform operations related to font files,. The Fonts Available list
shows font files that are available on disk. The Fonts Selected list show
fonts that are in the current printer configuration.
