Re: Downloading a font to a HP4050 network printer

Tim,

I didn't see any answers to your question. So here's mine.

The file you downloaded is probably a PCL stream file. You just need to 
get this stream file into a *USERASCII spool file and place that spool 
file on the OUTQ to your printer. Create a *USERASCII print file 
(CRTPRTF); put the downloaded file in the IFS; use the COPY command to 
copy the file to your print file; move the resultant spool file to your 
printer OUTQ.

Downloading a font to a HP4050 network printer






Hi,

 

I have a font I downloaded from http://www.micrfonts.com/. I need to
"download" it to a hp4050 network printer. The instructions and included
utility talk about downloading to a printer attached to LTP1,2,3, but 
there
is no documentation on downloading the font to a network printer. 

 

Can anyone give me some dirction on how to do this.

 

System stuff:

 

            Iseries 520 v5r4

            HP4050 network printer

            Good'ol RPG for creating checks

 

Thanks
