Character Fonts Your printer has two draft fonts (normal and high-speed) and two Near Letter Quality (NLQ) fonts (Epson Roman and Epson Sans Serif). You can select these through application software and the control panel. The draft fonts are ideal for preliminary work. Use the defaultsetting mode (explained earlier in this chapter) to choose between normal and high-speed draft. Near Letter Quality takes a little longer to print but produces fullyformed characters suitable for most documentation requirements. From the control panel you can select normal or condensed versions of all the fonts. Condensed characters are 60 percent as wide as normal characters. Use the FONT button and the FONT and CONDENSED lights to select the font you want. Each time you press the FONT button, the selection changes and the FONT and CONDENSED lights come on (m >, go off (u), or blink ( 'I ) to indicate the current selection.

Character Fonts
Your printer has two draft fonts (normal and high-speed) and two
Near Letter Quality (NLQ) fonts (Epson Roman and Epson Sans
Serif). You can select these through application software and the
control panel.
The draft fonts are ideal for preliminary work. Use the default-
setting mode (explained earlier in this chapter) to choose between
normal and high-speed draft.
Near Letter Quality takes a little longer to print but produces fully-
formed characters suitable for most documentation requirements.
From the control panel you can select normal or condensed versions
of all the fonts. Condensed characters are 60 percent as wide as
normal characters.
Use the
FONT
button and the
FONT
and
CONDENSED
lights to select
the font you want. Each time you press the
FONT
button, the
selection changes and the
FONT
and
CONDENSED
lights come on
(m

go off
(u),
or blink
(
‘I
)
to indicate the current selection.
