APPLICATION NOTE #160
 USING THE HP SERIES II WITH S1 OR S2 CARTRIDGES
 Rev. 02
 RELATED FILES: 3HP-S.PRN


 The XyWrite printer file, 3HP-S.PRN, supports the S1 (92290S1) and 
the S2 (92290S2) Font Cartridges, which can be used with either the 
Hewlett-Packard LaserJet Series II or the HP LaserJet 2000 printers. 
This application note describes using both cartridges.


 USING THE S1 FONT CARTRIDGE
 When you use the S1 cartridge, you have the option of accessing four 
different fixed pitch fonts each with 4 different symbol sets.

 The available fonts are:

 S1*12COUR         Fixed, 12 pitch/ 10 point
 S1*12COUR-BOLD    Fixed, 12 pitch/ 10 point
 S1*12COUR-ITALIC  Fixed, 12 pitch/ 10 point
 S1*10COUR-ITALIC  Fixed, 10 pitch/ 12 point

 The available symbol sets are Roman8 (8U), PC-8 full ASCII chart 
compliment (10U), PC-8 Danish/Norwegian (11U), and ECMA-94 Latin 
(0N).

 The printer file, 3HP-S.PRN, is set up to access the font with the 
standard Roman8 (8U) symbol set and allow the user to alter the font 
definitions to access any of the available symbol sets.

 For example, the font definition in the printer file for S1*12COUR  
is:

   FO:S1*12COUR
   ;FO<{ESC}&l0O{ESC}(10U{ESC}(s0p12h10v0s0b3T
   ;FO<{ESC}&l0O{ESC}(11U{ESC}(s0p12h10v0s0b3T
   ;FO<{ESC}&l0O{ESC}(0N{ESC}(s0p12h10v0s0b3T
   FO<{ESC}&l0O{ESC}(8U{ESC}(s0p12h10v0s0b3T
   VL=67
   UW:12pitch
   US:ROMAN8
   ;US:PCSYMBOL
   ET

 You can modify the font definition to access any of the other three 
symbol sets, PC-8 (10U); PC-8 D/N (11U); or ECMA-94 Latin (0N). ASCII 
characters 32 through 126 print the same for each symbol set. 
Characters 1 through 31 print using the 10U or 11U symbol sets with 
the PCSYMBOL substitution table. Characters 127 through 255 will 
print depending on the specific symbol set you are using.

 1.  Call the printer file to the display.

       Type:     F5ca 3hp-s.prn<CR>

 2.  Search for the font definition you want to modify.

       Type:     F5se /12cour/<CR>

 3.  Place a semicolon in front of the current font definition for 8U. 
(The
     code for the symbol set is after the first opening/left 
parenthesis.)

       ;FO<{ESC}&l0O{ESC}(8U{ESC}(s0p12h10v0s0b3T

 4.  Place a semicolon in front of the line that says US:Roman8.

     ;US:ROMAN8

 5.  Remove the semicolon in front of the appropriate font definition. 
For
     example, if you want to switch to the PC-8 (10U) symbol set, 
remove the
     semicolon from the following line:

       FO<{ESC}&l0O{ESC}(10U{ESC}(s0p12h10v0s0b3T

 6.  If you choose either the 11U or the 10U symbol set font 
definition, remove
     the semicolon in front of the line that says US:PCSYMBOL. This 
allows you
     to print ASCII characters 1 through 31.

       US:PCSYMBOL

 For example, the entire font definition for S1*12COUR after 
modification to access the PC-8 full ASCII chart compliment (10U) now 
appears as follows:

   FO:S1*12COUR
   FO<{ESC}&l0O{ESC}(10U{ESC}(s0p12h10v0s0b3T
   ;FO<{ESC}&l0O{ESC}(11U{ESC}(s0p12h10v0s0b3T
   ;FO<{ESC}&l0O{ESC}(0N{ESC}(s0p12h10v0s0b3T
   ;FO<{ESC}&l0O{ESC}(8U{ESC}(s0p12h10v0s0b3T
   VL=67
   UW:12pitch
   ;US:ROMAN8
   US:PCSYMBOL
   ET

 USING THE S2 FONT CARTRIDGE
 When you use the S2 cartridge, you have the option of accessing five 
different proportional fonts each with 4 symbol sets.

 The 3HP-S.PRN reorganizes the fonts and symbol sets as

 S2*14HELVB-10U    Proportional, 14 point
 S2*10TR-10U       Proportional, 12 point
 S2*10TRB-10U      Proportional, 12 point
 S2*10TRI-10U      Proportional, 12 point
 S2*8TR-10U        Proportional, 8 point
 S2*14HELVB-11U    Proportional, 14 point
 S2*10TR-11U       Proportional, 12 point
 S2*10TRB-11U      Proportional, 12 point
 S2*10TRI-11U      Proportional, 12 point
 S2*8TR-11U        Proportional, 8 point

 Since 3HP-S.PRN reorganizes the four S2 cartridge symbol sets into 
two sets, only two font definitions are needed for each font.

 The set named PC-8 (10U) contains all the PC-8 (10U) characters plus 
certain characters from the ECMA-94 Latin (0N) set. The ECMA 
substitution table provides access to these characters. Use the S2 
font definitions which have ÿ2D10U appended to them (S2*name-10U), 
for example, S2*14HELVB-10U or S2*10TRI-10U.

 The set named 11U contains all the PC-8 Danish/Norwegian (11U) 
characters, several of the ECMA-94 (0N) characters, and two 
characters from the Roman8 (8U) set. The LATIN substitution table 
provides access to these characters. Use the S2 font definitions 
which have ÿ2D11U appended to them (S2*name-11U), for example, 
S2*14HELVB-11U or S2*10TRI-11U.

 Note #1  Lowercase L. In all the escape codes shown in this 
application note, the character after the ampersand is a lowercase L 
(ell).
