    							246Using the Control Panel Note:
    If you normally use the HP LaserJet 4 printer driver when printing, you 
    should change settings using this driver whenever you can. Printer 
    driver settings always override the LJ4 Menu options.
    FontSource
    Sets the default font source.
    Font Number
    Sets the default font number for the default font source. The 
    available number depends on the settings you made.
    Pitch
    Specifies the default font pitch if the font is scalable and of 
    fixed-pitch. You can select from 0.44 to 99.99 cpi (characters per 
    inch), in 0.01-cpi increments. This item may not appear depending 
    on the Font Source or Font Number settings.
    Height
    Specifies the default font height if the font is scalable and 
    proportional. You can select from 4.00 to 999.75 points, in 
    0.25-point increments. This item may not appear depending on 
    the Font Source or Font Number settings.
    SymSet
    Selects the default symbol set. If the font you selected in Font 
    Source and Font Number is not available in the new SymSet 
    setting, the Font Source and the Font Number settings are 
    automatically replaced with the default value, IBM-US.

    Selects the number of lines for the selected paper size and 
    orientation. This also causes a line spacing (VMI) change, and the 
    new VMI value is stored in the printer. This means that later 
    changes in the Page Size or Orientation settings cause changes in 
    the Form value, based on the stored VMI.
    Source SymSet, Dest SymSet
    Available only in certain locations where printers are sold with a 
    special ROM module installed to handle specific languages.
    CR Function, LF Function
    These functions are included for users of particular operating 
    systems, such as UNIX.
    Tray Assign
    Changes the assignment for the paper source select command. 
    When 4 is selected, the commands are set as compatible with the 
    HP LaserJet 4. When 4K is selected, the commands are set as 
    compatible with the HP LaserJet 4000, 5000, and 8000. When 5S is 
    selected, the commands are set as compatible with the HP LaserJet 
    5Si.
    GL2 Menu
    This menu lets you set the printer to emulate a plotter, allowing 
    you to use software which requires a plotter for output. The 
    LJ4GL2 mode is similar to the GL/2 mode supported in the HP 
    LaserJet 4 mode. The GLlike mode emulates some of the HP-GL 
    plotter commands and includes all the commands found in HP’s 
    GL/2 mode, as well as two additional commands.
     
    						
    							248Using the Control Panel
    * Available only when GLlike is selected as the GL Mode.
    Before you start printing in the GL/2 mode
    You may need to change the following print options in your 
    application, depending on your output needs. Check these 
    settings to make sure they match the data you are trying to print.
    If you need to configure the printer settings, first switch to the 
    GL/2 emulation mode, then change the settings using the printer 
    driver, or the control panel menus.

    Note:
    Settings or data saved in the printer’s RAM (such as downloaded fonts) 
    may be erased when you change the emulation mode.
    GL Mode
    Specifies whether the printer uses a direct emulation of the GL/2 
    plotter language, or the HP LaserJet 4 emulation of GL/2.
    Scale
    Specifies whether the output from the software is scaled. The scale 
    factor is based on the output paper size of the application.
    Origin
    Specifies whether the logical origin of the “plotter” is the corner 
    or the center of the paper.
    Pen
    Allows you to choose a pen which you can then set the thickness 
    for in the Pen 0 through 6 item. The LJ4GL2 mode supports two 
    pens (0 and 1), while the GLlike mode supports seven pens (0 
    through 6).
    End
    Specifies the way in which lines end.
    Join
    Specifies the way in which lines are joined.
    Pens 0 through 6
    Allows you to set the thickness of the pens used to make the 
    printout. Pen 0 and Pen 1 are available in the LJ4GL2 mode, and 
    Pen 0 through Pen 6 are available in the GLlike mode.

    when it is in the ESC/P 2 emulation mode.
