Ordering fonts, options,
and supplies
This appendix contains information relevant to ordering fonts,
options, and supplies for your Xerox 4219/MRP and 4215/MRP
Mid Range Systems Printers in the United States and in other
countries.
Ordering fonts
Numerous licensed fonts are available from Xerox.  If you plan to
use a font that is not a 4219/MRP or 4215/MRP system font, place
your order so that the font diskettes arrive before your printer is
installed.  Fonts can be ordered on magnetic tape or diskette for
downloading from your host computer system to the 4219/MRP
and 4215/MRP
Magnetic tape fonts
The host computer system may transmit font data or digitized
graphic images to the 4219/MRP and 4215/MRP.  This data is
stored in font data memory and invoked by job control
commands inserted in the data stream.
Fonts provided by Xerox Font Services for downloading from
your host computer system are contained on a standard 9-track,
1600 bits-per-inch, magnetic tape.  One tape may contain several
fonts.  Individual font files are separated by tape marks.  The last
file on a tape is followed by a double tape mark.
Each tape package is accompanied by:
Data sheets that list font names, record lengths, and the
actual byte count of each file
Character code assignment sheets
Character width specifications. 
Font diskettes
Fonts stored on diskettes can be downloaded from your PC to
the 4219/MRP or 4215/MRP.  A  font diskette may contain more
than one font. 
Custom fonts
Xerox Font Services can create custom typefaces, special
characters for existing fonts, and digitized artwork such as
signatures and company logos.
These custom graphic images are available on magnetic tape or
diskettes.
