One mode is called Enhanced and the other is called CDF (for Constant Density Font). Enhanced fonts include Draft and Data Processing, Near Letter Quality (Gothic and Courier), and Optical Character Recognition Fonts (OCR-A and OCR-B). When this option is set to Enhanced, characters printed at 12, 13. 3, 15, and 17. 14 will use a denser character matrix than that of the default CDF matrix. If this option is set to CDF and a CDF font matrix is not available for the current Font Style and CPI, the Enhanced matrix will be selected. The Specifications Section of this manual has a listing of the CPI options available in Constant Density fonts. If you select a CPI value, either through the Control Panel or via an escape sequence from the host computer, that is not available in Constant Density Mode, the printer will automatically switch to Enhanced Mode for printer output. Choosing the Enhanced option will cause the OCR-A font to be printed at 96 DPI vertical. Choosing the High option will cause the OCR-A font to be printed at 144 DPI vertical. Standard and Enhanced print at the same speed, but the enhanced font is slightly shorter than the Standard. High prints at a slower speed. Chapter 3: Printer Menus and the Control Panel 3­41 Operator Menu Font Ser/Par Style This parameter allows you to select the font style used by emulations attached to the Parallel, Serial, and LAN port. For emulations that support downloaded fonts, you can use this parameter to select the download font. Style options Draft DP Gothic Courier OCR-A OCR-B Download (High-speed) (Data Processing, Default selection) (Sans Serif NLQ) (Serif NLQ) (Optical Character Recognition) (Optical Character Recognition) (Selects the downloaded font) CPI (Characters Per Inch) This parameter allows you to select characters per inch (CPI) settings. The possible options are 5, 6, 6. 67, 7. 5, 8. 33, 8. 57, 10, 12, 13. 33, 15, 16. 67, 17. 14, and 20. Panel Language This parameter allows you to set up the printer to display messages on the Control Panel in a particular language. The possible options are English (default), German, French, Italian, Swedish/Finish, and Spanish. [. . . ] This produces consistent print speed even when changing from one CPI to another. Enhanced Mode provides higher resolution and a greater range of CPIs than CDF Mode. Because Enhanced Mode uses a variety of dot densities you should expect a change in print speed of text when switching from one CPI to another. Gothic and Courier These two type styles provide Near Letter Quality (NLQ) printing. [. . . ]
