ESC/P-Specific, Variables

Page 90 highlights

ESC/P-Specific Variables The following table lists the currently defined ESC/P-specific variables which are valid only for HP LaserJet 4PJ and 4LJPro printers, and optionally for HP LaserJet 4V and 4MV printers. These variables can be set using the LPARM : ESCP option. Note that HP LaserJet 4PJ, 4V, and 4MV factory defaults for these variables are in parentheses. Note If ESC/P is installed in HP LaserJet 4V and 4MV printers and a menu reset or cold reset is performed, the printer defaults to FONTNUMBER = 0, FONTSOURCE = I, SYMSET = ROMAN8 and PERSONALITY = AUTO. To re-establish ESC/P as the default personality, set ESC/P as the default personality using PJL or the control panel (in Japan, users can send the ESCPDEF.PJL file). To print Japanese via PCL using the MS Mincho or MS Gothic typefaces, set the SYMSET to WIN31J, FONTSOURCE to the SIMM slot containing the MS Mincho or MS Gothic font (usually M4), and set FONTNUMBER to 1 for MS Mincho or 2 for MS Gothic. Also set the personality to AUTO or PCL. (Alternatively, in Japan, users can configure the printer for PCL using the PCLDEF.PJL file.) 6-28 Environment Commands

ESC/P-Specific
Variables
The following table lists the currently defined
ESC/P-specific variables which are valid only for HP
LaserJet 4PJ and 4LJPro printers, and optionally for HP
LaserJet 4V and 4MV printers. These variables can be set
using the LPARM : ESCP option. Note that HP LaserJet
4PJ, 4V, and 4MV factory defaults for these variables are in
parentheses.
Note
If ESC/P is installed in HP LaserJet 4V and 4MV printers
and a menu reset or cold reset is performed, the printer
defaults to FONTNUMBER = 0, FONTSOURCE = I,
SYMSET = ROMAN8 and PERSONALITY = AUTO. To
re-establish ESC/P as the default personality, set ESC/P as
the default personality using PJL or the control panel (in
Japan, users can send the ESCPDEF.PJL file).
To print Japanese via PCL using the MS Mincho or MS
Gothic typefaces, set the SYMSET to WIN31J,
FONTSOURCE to the SIMM slot containing the MS
Mincho or MS Gothic font (usually M4), and set
FONTNUMBER to 1 for MS Mincho or 2 for MS Gothic.
Also set the personality to AUTO or PCL. (Alternatively, in
Japan, users can configure the printer for PCL using the
PCLDEF.PJL file.)
