Host-resident fonts
AFP host-resident fonts are fonts which reside on the host system in font libraries. The benefit of
using host-resident fonts is that the font layout of the printed pages is the same for different IPDS
printers. Therefore, the use of host-resident fonts is the preferred way to extend the font set.
The following rules apply to the use of host-resident fonts:
• the requested fonts have to be downloaded for each IPDS print session
• a downloaded font survives the IPDS print job boundaries
• a downloaded font does not survive the IPDS print session end
• a downloaded font does not survive a printer reboot
IBM mainframe font support
In a IBM mainframe environment all fonts in use have to be downloaded to the printer.
Default font
The factory installed default font is a Courier Roman Medium 12 pitch (10 point) font. You can
select another default font and code page among the factory or user installed single byte fonts
and code pages. The default font is selected through the printer GUI.
Install resources on the printer
The user can install the following types of AFP resources on the printer harddisk:
• FOCA LF3 Type1single byte outline fonts
• FOCA LF3 TrueType single and double byte outline fonts
• FOCA LF3 CID double byte outline fonts
• FOCA LF3 Code Pages
Install a FOCA outline font or a code page
FOCA Type1, CID or TrueType fonts and their associated Code Pages can be installed on the
printer harddisk.
Delete resources from the printer harddisk
User installed resources on the printer harddisk can only be deleted through the printer GUI – not
through commands from the host system. You can also use the GUI to delete resources which
have been captured directly from the host. The factory installed resources, fonts, code pages, are
protected and cannot be deleted.
