SPECIFICATIONS ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE P/N 14203L REV. 1 June, 2008
Standard Printer Fonts
Fonts A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, and GS are expandable up to
10 times, height and width independently. However, fonts E
and H (OCR-A and OCR-B) are not considered “in-spec"
when expanded.
The scalable smooth font 0 (CG Triumvirate™ Bold
Condensed) is expandable on a dot-by-dot basis, height and
width independent, while maintaining smooth edges.
Maximum character size depends on available memory.
IBM Code Page 850 international character sets are available
in the fonts A, B, C, D, E, F, G, and 0 through software
control.
