Bitmap Fonts and Symbol Sets

Table 3-1 identifies the resident bitmap fonts for the printers. The
supported symbol sets for these bitmap fonts are shown in Table 3-2.
The HP LaserJet III, IIID, IIIP, and IIISi printers contained all these
bitmap fonts. However, with the introduction of the HP LaserJet 4
printer, the bitmap Courier was replaced by a scalable Courier
typeface (refer to “Scalable Typefaces and Symbol Sets”). The
HP LaserJet 4L, 5L, 6L, and 1100 series printers do not contain any
bitmap fonts. If these printers receive a request for Line Printer, the
fixed-pitch scalable Courier typeface is substituted. Except as noted,
the DeskJet 1200C and 1600C support the same fonts and symbol
sets as the HP LaserJet 4 printer.

Table 3-2 identifies the symbol sets available for the internal bitmap
fonts. Note that this list is for the bitmap fonts only. For the scalable
typeface symbol sets, refer to the section “Scalable Typefaces and
Symbol Sets.”
