Fonts
The printer comes with an installed set of fonts, which are
selectable using the Default setting mode. However, the
printer always uses the fonts you select with your software
program. The only time you need to select the printer’s
installed fonts is when your software program does not
allow you to select fonts.
You can select other font and pitch combinations using
ESC/P 2 commands.
