Appendix P

International Language Print Capability (ILPC)
Programming Examples


ILPC (if equipped) allows the printing of non-English character sets, available with European

language support (CG TIMES), KANJI language support, Chinese language support
(SIMPLIFIED GB) and Korean Hangul. All of the features are embedded in the printer

resident firmware and accessible through DPL thus eliminating excessive download time of
bitmapped characters. Using scalable technology licensed from AGFA, this firmware allows

users to print smooth characters in sizes from 4pt (1.4 mm) to 999pt (350 mm) in over 40
languages. Consult Appendix I for code page selections. Specific details regarding which
characters are supported in each option can be obtained through Datamax-O’Neil Technical

Support.


ILPC - CG TIMES


The CG Times is a single-byte scalable font consisting of four typefaces in 38 Western

European languages. This contains over 900 unique characters in each of the four typefaces
from the CG Times typeface family, Normal, Italic, Bold, and Bold Italic. Single-byte scalable

fonts are selected using a print format record (see Generating Label Formats and Appendix
H for details).
