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. Forward and Backward Compatibility Modes for the Lexmark C720, C750, C910, T520, T522, T620, T622, W812, and W820 Your PCL emulation has forward and backward compatibility modes. The forward compatibility mode is used to emulate the fonts in the Hewlett-Packard Company's LaserJet 4050. The backward compatibility mode is used for compatibility with the Hewlett-Packard Company's LaserJet 5 and the Lexmark family of printers. Standard PCL Emulation Fonts Table 2-18 on page 2-29 lists the font selection commands for forward and backward compatibility mode for each of the 47 standard PCL emulation fonts. Since the font selection commands for the forward and backward compatibility modes are identical, they are listed together in the table. Most fonts are assigned a font group indicating which symbol sets that font supports. To determine which symbol sets are supported by a particular font, find the font group (A, B, or C) for the font in Table 2-18, and then see Table 2-20 on page 2-34 for the symbol sets that belong to that group.
