Control Panel

Selecting a Font and Pitch

You can select one of the printer's five fonts and pitch by using the buttons on the printer's control panel, as described below.

Note:
  • Settings you make in application programs usually override settings you make from the printer's control panel. For best results, use your application to select a font and make other settings.
  • The available pitch depends on the font you select. See the table below for more information.
