Forward and Backward Compatibility Modes for the Lexmark C912
Your PCL emulation has forward and backward compatibility modes. The forward
compatibility mode is used to emulate the fonts in the Hewlett-Packard Company’s
LaserJet 4050. The backward compatibility mode is used for compatibility with the
Hewlett-Packard Company’s LaserJet 5 and the Lexmark family of printers.

The following table lists the font selection commands for forward and backward
compatibility mode for each of the 47 standard PCL emulation fonts. Since the font
selection commands for the forward and backward compatibility modes are identical,
they are listed together in the table.
