Once an option is installed, verify that it is installed properly by
printing a menu settings page.
A menu settings page lists:
all the printer settings contained in the operator panel
menus and their default values
all installed features and options, such as, internal network
adapter (INA) cards, drawers, output expanders, duplex,
flash, and hard disk...

Look for the option name on the printed page. If the option does
not appear on the page, it is not installed securely in place or
aligned properly. Remove the option and install it again. Print the
menu settings page again.

This appendix contains basic information about fonts, their charac-
teristics, and the specific fonts available in PCL emulation, and
PostScript Level 2 emulation.
Note:PCL emulation refers to printer emulation when it is
responding to either PCL 5 or PCL 6 data stream com-
mands. Differences in the way fonts are handled when in
PCL 5 emulation or PCL 6 emulation are noted in this
appendix.

Weight and Style
Typefaces are often available in different weights and styles. These
variationsmodifytheoriginaltypefacesoyoucan,forexample,
emphasize important words in text or highlight book titles. The
different weights and styles are designed to complement the origi-
nal typeface.
Weightrefers to the thickness of the lines that form the characters.
Thicker lines result in darker characters. Some words commonly
used to describe the weight of a...

Pitch and Point Size
The size of a font is specified as either a pitch or point size,
depending on whether the font is fixed space or proportional.
Infixed spacefonts, each character has the same width.Pitchis used
to specify the size of fixed space fonts. It is a measure of the num-
ber of characters that will print in one horizontal inch of type. For
example, all 10-pitch fonts print 10 characters per inch (cpi) and all
12-pitch fonts print 12 cpi:...

The point size of a font is defined as the distance from the top of
the tallest character in the font to the bottom of the lowest charac-
ter in the font. Due to the definition of point size, different fonts
printed at the same point size may appear quite different in size.
This is because there are other font parameters that affect how the
font looks. However, the point size of a font is an excellent specifi-
cation of the relative size of a font....

Bitmapped and Scalable Fonts
The printer uses both bitmapped and scalable fonts. Bitmapped
fonts are stored in printer memory as predefined patterns of bits
that represent a typeface at a specific size, style and resolution. An
example of a character from a bitmapped font is shown below:
Bitmapped fonts are available in different type styles and point
sizes as downloadable fonts. Contact the place where you bought
your printer for more information...

are deleted when you turn off or reset the printer. Scalable fonts
provide the flexibility of printing in many different point sizes.
Your printer uses different scalable font formats for downloading
fonts to the printer. PCL 5 emulation usesIntellifontandTrueType
scalable fonts. PCL 6 emulation usesTrueTypescalable fonts only.
