Introduction
Caution NO LIABILITY IS ASSUMED FOR ANY DAMAGE CAUSED BY IMPROPER INSTALLATION. SOFTWARE USED WITH THIS PRINTER MUST SUPPORT THE PRINTER'S EMULATION MODE. The emulation mode can be changed by following the procedures described in Chapter 2 (on CD-ROM). Notice on Software SOFTWARE USED WITH THIS PRINTER MUST SUPPORT THE PRINTER'S NATIVE MODE OR ONE OF ITS EMULATION MODES. [. . . ] This writes the file to the memory card and instructs the printer to automatically print out a memory card write information page as shown below.
K
Data type.
Type of data written (currently only type 2 is supported). Error information.
When the memory card write information page is printed, the message display returns to Ready . If the writing was not completed successfully, an error code appears on the message display. Repeat above steps until you have transferred all data (files) that you want to write to the memory card. Each time you finish writing data, a memory card write information page is printed from the printer showing the information explained in step 4 above, but pertaining only to the data just written. To see all data contained in the memory card at once, print a list of data names as explained on the last page of this manual.
Deleting Data from a Memory Card
It is possible to use the printer to delete data from a memory card one by one. First check that the memory card is writable (for example that the memory card is not write -protected, data exists on the card, and its internal battery is not exhausted). Otherwise, the >Delete data menu will not be shown on the message display. When the deletion is completed, the printer automatically prints out a memory card status page as shown on page 2-24 .

2. 10. Operating a Memory Card
Formatting a Memory Card
Formatting allows data to be written to the card. A new memory card must be formatted before it can be used in the printer.
*
Formatting destroys any existing data on the memory card.
First check that the memory card is writable (for example that the memory card is not write -protected, and its internal battery is not exhausted). When the formatting operation is successfully completed, the printer automatically prints out a formatting information page as shown below.
Card size. The size remaining in the memory card for storing data in bytes.

2. 10. Operating a Memory Card
Printing a list of data names
The printer prints a list of all data names (referred to as partitions) stored in a memory card for reference. (Printing a list is also available for a font card. )
The printout (example above) includes the following information.
Partition (data) number. The destination name of the written data as assigned automatically by the printer. The type of the written data i. e. , whether it is host data (Data) or font data (Font). The size of the capacity remaining in the memory card for storing further data, including the amount of memory that the printer uses for its system (approximately 70 bytes). The PRESCRIBE II command that terminates a writing operation when writing to memory card using the PRESCRIBE II ICCD command; usually WRED.

3. 1. Bitmap and Scalable Fonts
Chapter 3 Fonts
This chapter describes the types of fonts you can use with the printer, including the printer's resident and KPDL fonts (option), and symbol sets.
3. 1. Bitmap and Scalable Fonts
A font is a set of characters of a particular design. These include the font type (bit map or scalable), symbol set, spacing, pitch, height, style, stroke weight, and typeface family. [. . . ] They can be changed by the FRPO (firmware reprogram) command described in the Programming Manual. The parameters and their identification codes are given below.
