How Do You Override Default Courier Font on 3130/3160

We are converting over from impact to laser printing. Our spooled files are
set to 6 LPI, formsize 66 long and 132 wide. They are still using *SCS with
the page rotation set to *AUTO.  We have been able to print on both sides
with an overlay of shaded bands like our continuous paper.

The output looks fine on the IBM 3130 and 3160. It converts to landscape and
sizing appears to be correct. The problem is the ugly default courier font.
The serifs make reading difficult. I've tried overriding the font using
OVRPRTF but PSF always does a font substitution.

Has anyone overriden this to something like a Gothic font?  How do you do
it?  What font code is it?  Do you set this on the printer side?
