Downloading fonts
The Color LaserWriter 12/600 PS uses downloadable PostScript fonts, which
are a type of soft font. The PostScript Printer Driver automatically downloads
any Type 1 fonts from your computer’s hard disk to the printer’s memory as
needed for each document that you print. You can also use the driver to
manually download fonts to the printer’s memory or to a hard disk installed or
connected to the printer when you don’t want to download fonts for each
document. Manually downloading fonts can speed printing.
Note: The Color LaserWriter 12/600 PS has a set of built-in fonts that do not
need to be downloaded. These fonts are listed in Appendix A.
Whether it is better to let Windows download fonts automatically or to
manually download fonts yourself depends on the number and frequency
with which fonts are used in a document and the size of your printer’s
memory or hard disk.
Downloading a Type 1 font to a PostScript printer usually takes from 15 to 20
seconds. When a program prints a document containing a font that is not
resident in your printer, Windows automatically downloads the font with the
document. However, after the document prints, any fonts that have been
downloaded with the document are cleared from the printer’s memory. This
means that each time you print a document that contains fonts not resident in
the printer, the fonts must be downloaded.
