Determining printable characters The Forms and Bar Code Card supports multiple code pages. It also supports a variety of fonts, which are listed in appendix "Forms Card fonts" on page 133. Therefore, the possible permutations of code pages and fonts are excessive. Because the user's computer font list is richer than that of the printer, a user could easily create a form where not all characters will print. The user can stipulate a supported code page via Forms Composer. Five font families support the international character set. • Intl-Courier • Intl-CG Times • Intl-Univers • Arial MT • Times New Roman PS MT These font families should complement any code page selected and result in almost every character printing. When printing a formset that utilizes an international character set, print a sample first to ensure all the characters will print. Printing errors Forms jobs will print until an error occurs. If "Error page Print" is ON, then the error page prints, indicating the error encountered. Once that error is cleared, the user can print again. The print job will continue unless another error occurs. For print jobs with multiple errors, each error must be cleared individually. The following is an example of an error page: The appendix "Forms print errors" on page 149 lists error codes reported and suggestions for corrective action. Determining printable characters 103

Determining printable characters
The Forms and Bar Code Card supports multiple code pages. It also supports a variety of fonts,
which are listed in appendix “Forms Card fonts” on page 133. Therefore, the possible permutations
of code pages and fonts are excessive.
Because the user’s computer font list is richer than that of the printer, a user could easily create a
form where not all characters will print.
The user can stipulate a supported code page via Forms Composer.
Five font families support the international character set.
•
Intl-Courier
•
Intl-CG Times
•
Intl-Univers
•
Arial MT
•
Times New Roman PS MT
These font families should complement any code page selected and result in almost every character
printing.
When printing a formset that utilizes an international character set, print a sample first to ensure all
the characters will print.
Printing errors
Forms jobs will print until an error occurs. If “Error page Print” is ON, then the error page prints,
indicating the error encountered.
Once that error is cleared, the user can print again. The print job will continue unless another error
occurs.
For print jobs with multiple errors, each error must be cleared individually.
The following is an example of an error page:
The appendix “Forms print errors” on page 149 lists error codes reported and suggestions for
corrective action.
