E. Printing DBCS Characters Several languages, such as Chinese, Korean, and Japanese, have fonts so large that it takes two bytes of information to represent each character. These fonts are referred to as Double Byte Character Set (DBCS) fonts. Information on DBCS fonts can be found in the following technical references.

DBCS fonts required to print a job must be downloaded with the job from the host. DBCS fonts that are marked eligible for capture on the host can be captured to disk or flash in the printer. Once captured, the fonts are treated as resident fonts and do not need to be downloaded with each job. This reduces network traffic when this font is requested for use in printing of future jobs. Capturing the fonts to disk is recommended. Due to the large size of the fonts, only a few fonts can be saved on user flash before the flash becomes full. See section Preparing Fonts for Capture on page 65 for information on how to capture fonts. Select the following settings to enable DBCS characters to print: 1. IPDS Emulation - Select the Resident emulation. The 3812/3816 emulation does not support DBCS printing. 2. Host Resolution - Select Auto or the resolution that matches the raster fonts stored on the host. If you need to use 300 dpi and 240 dpi raster font resources in the same job, select Auto. DBCS fonts require a large amount of printer memory for storage and printing during an IPDS session. Depending on the language, one font can require up to 15 MB of printer memory for temporary storage while printing a job. Because of the additional memory requirements to store and print DBCS fonts, additional memory may be required in the printer. 110

DBCS resident fonts are not included in the Card for IPDS and SCS/TNe. DBCS fonts required to print a
job must be downloaded with the job from the host. DBCS fonts that are marked eligible for capture on the
host can be captured to disk or flash in the printer. Once captured, the fonts are treated as resident fonts

fonts, only a few fonts can be saved on user flash before the flash becomes full. See section Preparing
Fonts for Capture on page 65 for information on how to capture fonts.
Select the following settings to enable DBCS characters to print:
1.
IPDS Emulation – Select the
Resident
emulation. The
3812/3816
emulation does not support
DBCS printing.
2.
Host Resolution – Select Auto or the resolution that matches the raster fonts stored on the host. If
you need to use 300 dpi and 240 dpi raster font resources in the same job, select Auto.
DBCS fonts require a large amount of printer memory for storage and printing during an IPDS session.
Depending on the language, one font can require up to 15 MB of printer memory for temporary storage
while printing a job. Because of the additional memory requirements to store and print DBCS fonts,
additional memory may be required in the printer.
