DOWNLOAD SOFT FONTS

     Soft Fonts are supplied as files on flexible disk and
     then transferred (downloaded) into the printer's user
     (RAM) memory. Once a soft font has been downloaded into
     the printer's RAM, it will appear on the PCL typeface list
     and may be selected for printing.
