= SUMMARY =

Support for the Hewlett-Packard (HP) DeskJet, DeskJet PLUS, and DeskJet 500 printers is provided for Microsoft Works version 2.0 on Supplemental Kit #1. Supplemental Kits can be ordered from Microsoft End User Sales at (800) 426-9400.

Each of the printer drivers supports a different set of fonts. Be sure to install the .PRD file(s) that supports the fonts you want to use. For specific information, see the table below.

Driver Name Fonts/Cartridges Supported ———– ————————–

HPDJ.PRD Internal fonts only HPDJ1.PRD Internal fonts; cartridges A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, and J; and font set 8A HPDJ2.PRD Internal fonts; cartridges M, P, and Q; and font set 8A HPDJ3.PRD Internal fonts; cartridges R, T, U, and V; and font sets 8C and 8D HPDJ3ASC.PRD Internal fonts; and font sets 8C (ASCII) and 8D (ASCII) HPDJ4.PRD Internal fonts; and cartridges W1, W2, 9B, 9C, 9D, and 9E HPDJLAND.PRD Internal fonts; and cartridges 7K and 7L (landscape)

Notes on Fonts/Cartridges
On the original DeskJet, italic requires a 22706A cartridge. If the L cartridge is to be used in an original DeskJet, there must also be a K cartridge in the system to provide landscape capability.

ASCII Character —– ———

1 (Registered ASCII 210 Symbol) 2 (Copyright ASCII 211 Symbol) 18 (TradeMark ASCII 212) 20 (Paragraph ASCII 214) 21 (Section ASCII 203) 22 (Dagger ASCII 212)

LetterGothic and CGTimes are internal fonts on the DeskJet 500. Some cartridges also provide these fonts. It is important to choose the correct font from the list depending on whether you are using a cartridge or accessing an internal font. In Works, if the font name has a letter in brackets after it, then the printer driver accesses a cartridge. \softlibproj
