Bitmap font simulation
The following table lists the Kyocera resident bitmap fonts, and the PRESCRIBE emulation best-fit fonts which are used
from the standard set of PCL resident scalable fonts. Selection of any of these fonts results in a compatible match with
respect to character spacing and alignment.
Notes:
• Some of the substituted fonts differ slightly in character style and size.
• Customer certification testing is required to determine if font substitutions are compatible with their
applications.

Notes:
• Some of the bitmap fonts are resident in the PRESCRIBE emulation option and are not necessarily substituted with a
scalable font. For more information, see “C3: Default font” on page 13.
• Resident scalable font list for the PRESCRIBE emulation option may not match those of a Kyocera printer.
