PCL-Specific Variables Variables Description FONTSOURCE The valid values for FONTSOURCE are: I (Internal Fonts) C, C1, C2 (Cartridge Fonts) S (Permanent Soft Fonts) M1, M2, M3, M4 (Fonts stored in one of the printer's ROM SIMM slots) Sample Value Range I, M1, M2, M3, M4, C, C1, C2, S (the number of cartridge and SIMM slots varies by printer) The valid values for this variable depend on the currently installed font base. If a font source is specified which does not contain any fonts, then the value is ignored, causing a PJL 27001 error (if verbose unsolicited device status is enabled). The following events automatically change the value of the FONTSOURCE variable to the next highest priority font source containing a default-marked font: if the currently set font source is C, C1, or C2, and the cartridge is removed from the printer; if the currently set font source is S and all soft fonts are deleted; if the currently set font source is S, while the currently set font number is the highestnumbered soft font, and any soft font is deleted. PITCH NOTE: the recommended order for setting FONTNUMBER, FONTSOURCE, and SYMSET is SYMSET first, then FONTSOURCE, then FONTNUMBER. Pitch of the default font in units of characters per inch (the default font must be a fixed-pitch scalable font). The pitch value can be specified to two decimal places. 0.44, 0.45, . . . 99.99 Environment Commands 6-25
