4.6.6.2 Downloadable Fonts and Graphics
When selecting downloadable fonts and graphics using TCI value of “7” or “8”, the CGN
denotes the memory slot (1-255) where the font or graphic has been stored. See Chapters
6 and 7 for additional information regarding downloadable fonts and graphics.
For example: If a graphic had been stored into RAM (volatile) memory slot 1 (see Chapter 5
for additional information), the proper TCI would be “8” and the CGN value would be “1”.
The Model printer also provides a standard downloadable font set containing 19 Helvetica
style fonts. These fonts are stored in the printer’s non-volatile flash memory and are
accessed with a TCI of 7 and the appropriate CGN value. Custom font sets may be loaded
into printers at the factory, ask your Microcom Representative for additional information on
custom font sets.
Downloadable fonts must be stored in two separate directions; 0 and 90 degrees. This
means that the 0 degree fonts should be used with 0 and 180 degree rotations while the 90
degree fonts used with 90 and 270 degree rotations in order to achieve correct printing.
