2-15 PCL Font and Symbol Set Support for the Lexmark E320 Your printer supports 13 fonts in PCL emulation, including 12 scalable fonts and one bitmapped fonts. Several parameters are used to select a font from the data stream. These include symbol set, spacing, point or pitch, style, weight, and typeface number. Print the font sample pages to view the specific parameters for each font. For scalable fonts, you can vary the size of a font by specifying pitch or point size. For bitmapped fonts, you must choose the pitch or point size listed on the font sample pages. You can print the font sample pages from the printer operator panel or through MarkVision. Refer to your printer user documentation for more information. A symbol set defines which characters are available for a font and the code point for each of these characters. The tables beginning on page 2-20 show the symbol sets available for each font in PCL emulation. Not all fonts support all symbol sets. You can select a font as the PCL emulation default from the printer operator panel or through MarkVision. Refer to your printer user documentation for more information. You can also select fonts using PJL commands. The selection parameter is the number portion from the font identifier shown on the font sample pages, such as 0 or 76 from font identifiers R0 or R76. Use the PJL values shown in the tables beginning on page 2-20 to select a symbol set. If a symbol set does not have a PJL value, use the symbol set ID to select the symbol set. A font selection can be either temporary or set as the default. Use the following PJL commands to select fonts: FONTSOURCE, FONTNUMBER, PITCH, PTSIZE, SYMSET, SET, DEFAULT. See Table 3-5: "Common Variables for PCL Emulation" on page 3-48 for more information about these commands.
