Chapter 2. Using ROM Fonts
This chapter describes
✦
how to use ANSI characters with ROM fonts.
✦
the available ROM fonts.
✦
ordering information for additional ROM fonts.
Optional fonts are available in one of several ROM sets.
Refer to the following tables to locate the style for your chosen
font.
Fonts 1-6 and 12 use the ANSI character set. Fonts 7-11 use
the non-standard character sets shown in Appendix A,
"Character Sets."
Point sizes are approximate. A 12-point character is 12 points
wide. There are 72 points to an inch, so there would be six
12-point characters to an inch. Use these point sizes to
determine which fonts will fit on your format.
The quality of your printed fonts is affected by print speed,
head energy, and the quality of your stock. To maximize the
quality of printing, you may wish to use a premium quality
stock. Contact your Monarch Sales Representative for
information about "premium" supplies. To improve the
appearance of your fonts, slow down the print speed. Refer to
your MPCLII Packet Reference Manaul to adjust the print
speed.

Check your bar codes when you change your print speed to
ensure an in-specification bar code.
