Additional Technical Information
The remainder of this chapter documents how the emulator differs
from the LaserJet series II printer.
Font Selection
The LaserJet series II emulation follows the same algorithm for
selecting fonts as described in the LaserJet Technical Reference
Manual. The resident Courier, Courier Bold, and Line Print
Compressed typefaces are completely compatible to the fonts
provided in the HP LaserJet series II printer.
Paper Size Interactions
The LaserJet series II printer has a few commands that interact with
the PostScript operator to change the printer’s paper (note that the
lowercase letter l appears in the commands, and not the numeral 1):
<ESC>&l#H For manual feed of paper
<ESC>&l#P If # is less than the maximum lines for the current paper
size, the number of lines per page is set to # (as if the
<ESC>&l#F had been received).
Your printer provides features which reduce the need for these
commands. Since these commands are not supported, the emulation
ignores them. Because of this you should be careful to load the
proper size cassette before beginning the print job.
Manual feed is available by inserting a page into the manual feed
slot on either the upper or lower paper tray. Manual feed supports
paper sizes up to 8 and 1/2 inches wide (216 mm) and 14 and 1/2
