********************************* I. WHAT IS INCLUDED ON THIS DISK *********************************
Included in this software are two components, Euro.pjl and Install.bat. Euro.pjl contains the PCL commands to put the Euro character into your printer's memory. The following is a list of the fonts that will contain the Euro symbol after this software is installed:
Albertus Medium Albertus Extra Bold AntiqOlive AntiqOlive Bold AntiqOlive Italic CG Times CG Times Bold CG Times Italic CG Times Bold Italic Coronet Courier Courier Bold Courier Italic Courier Bold Italic Letter Gothic Letter Gothic Bold Letter Gothic Italic Univers Medium Univers Bold Univers Medium Italic Univers Bold Italic Univers Medium Condensed Univers Bold Condensed Univers Medium Condensed Italic Univers Bold Condensed Italic
Install.bat is a DOS batch file that copies the files to your hard drive, and it copies Euro.pjl to your printer. It can also be used to send the file to your printer later if it is power cycled or performing a front panel reset.
********************************* II. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS *********************************
1. RUN INSTALL.BAT
This batch file will create a directory, C:\HPLJUTIL , and copy all files to that directory.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
2. PLACE THE FOLLOWING LINE IN YOUR AUTOEXEC.BAT
COPY /B C:\HPLJUTIL\EURO.PJL
If this line is not placed in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file, the fonts will not be downloaded to your printer when your PC is booted.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
3. THE POSITION OF THE COPY COMMAND IN YOUR AUTOEXEC.BAT FILE
If the following line is already in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file,
COPY /B C:\HPLJUTIL\Defaults.pjl
Place the line from step 2 before this line.
Otherwise, placing the copy command at the end of the AUTOEXEC.BAT file is the recommended position in most cases.
However, because the copy command uses the computer's file system, all disk caching (for example, SMARTDRV), disk compression (for example, STACKER), and LAN software (for example, NOVELL), must be loaded BEFORE the copy command in your autoexec.bat file.
On the other hand, if you load a DOS "shell" program (for example, DOSSHELL or Norton Commander) from your AUTOEXEC.BAT file, the copy command must come BEFORE the DOS "shell" commands. Commands after the shell program will not execute until you exit from the shell.
If you upgrade your version of DOS or install other software applications, your autoexec.bat file may get modified. Make sure that the commands are still in the correct order after the upgrade.
************************************* III. AFTER INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS *************************************
If you printer is power cycled or receives a front panel reset, you will need to run INSTALL.BAT again to resend the fonts to your printer.
********************************* IV. FONT OPERATION *********************************
Verifying that the Fonts have been Downloaded to the Printer:
Press the Front Panel button once to generate a test page and soft font printout. If the fonts have been installed, then you will receive at least two extra sheets of paper that contain a list of the updated fonts. Also included on the soft font printouts are the PCL escape sequences that can be used to select the Euro enabled fonts.
********************************* V. FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION *********************************
If you need additional information regarding these fonts go to the HP Euro website located at: http://www.hp.com/Go/LaserJetEuro
Printing the Euro from your application:
This solution puts the Euro enable fonts in your printer's memory, but it does not enable your applications to print the Euro. Your applications must be modified to be Euro enabled. Contact your application vendor for modifying your application. If your application allows you to insert PCL commands into your document, then use the PCL commands below to select the fonts and the appropriate symbol sets to print the Euro.

Calculating Width of the Euro The Euro characters supplied by this utility all have the the same width, 4391 Intellifont Typeface Design Units. In order to convert this value into PCL Units of Measure, you must use the formula below:
x =round( b * c * (d/e) * (uom) ) where: x = desired metric value in units of measure b = inches per point c = point size of font d = metric value in Design Units e = number of Design Units in the design EM uom = PCL Units of Measure
The following two examples convert the width of an 11-point Euro to PCL Units of Measure. The first example assumes 300 PCL Units Per Inch, and the second example assumes 600 PCL Units Per Inch.
Intellifont Method (11 points at 300 PCL Units Per Inch) Assume the following values: b = 1 inch/72.307 points c = 11 points d = 4391 Design Units e = 8782 Design Units uom = 300 PCL Units of Measure
Using the above values: x = round(1/72.307 * 11 * 4391/8782 * 300) = round(22.819) = 23 PCL Units of Measure
Intellifont Method (11 points at 600 PCL Units per inch) Assume the following values: b = 1 inch/72.307 points c = 11 points d = 4391 Design Units e = 8782 Design Units uom = 600 PCL Units of Measure
Using the above values: x = round(1/72.307 * 11 * 4391/8782 * 600) = round(45.639) = 46 PCL Units of Measure
