- Why printer manufacturers make built-in fonts in the printer?
-
- Can somebody there explain?
-
- I want to buy a printer, but why do I care if it has 7 fonts (BJ-20) or
- scalable (LQ-570)?
-
- I have an old Citizen printer 120D (tiny, 9-pin very basic) and with just
- my MS Window Write (it is not even Word!) i can print scalable characters
- in all those fonts that come with MS Window!
-
- You can re-post this to the newsgroup, but also send me an email, because
- I don't read this newsgroup very often, so I have ~400 messages waiting
- to be read.
-
- Thanks, Victor
