Novexx Reference internal fonts User manual

  • Hello! I've reviewed the Novexx printer internal fonts user manual, which details the various font options available for models such as TTX 450, TTX 650, and others. This document covers fixfonts, Speedo fonts, and OCR fonts, including instructions on how to load custom fonts and set font parameters. I am equipped to answer your questions about these fonts and their implementation in your Novexx printer.
  • Which printer types support these internal fonts?
    Can the fixfonts be scaled?
    How are customized fonts loaded?
    What is the default font parameter setting?
    What are the two OCR fonts?

System Requirements
The internal fonts are available in the following printer types:
• TTX 450/650/674/675/950/1050

Font size
This topic section lists all internal fonts, fixfonts as well as Speedo fonts, provided by printer types
listed above. The pictured fonts were printed with a 300dpi printhead. If a printer with a 200dpi
printhead is used instead, the same fonts are available, but with a different print size. An exception
are the OCR fonts (YT 110 and YT 116), whose size is standardized. Printed on a label, they appear
always in the same size, independent of the printhead resolution
Fixfonts cannot be scaled, Speedo fonts can.

Customized Fonts
Prerequisites
Only with 64-xx Gen. 3
Starting with firmware version 5.02, customized fonts can be loaded separately into the flash memory.
Prerequisites:
• At least 4MB flash memory are available
• Free flash memory of the required amount
Loading fonts
Files with customized fonts can be ordered at Novexx Solutions. Such font files carry the extension
*.s3b (as firmware files) and have to be loaded in the same way as firmware files.
Firmware version before 3.00 (32Bit) or 4.00 (64Bit) respectively provided the internal fonts in sepa-
rate *.s3b files. Those files can not be used with firmware versions 5.02 and above!
Refer to the service manual, chapter „Firmware“.
After successfully loading a font file, the following message appears:
Data done
KBytes: xx
➔ Restart the printer to activate the fonts.
If not enough unused flash memory is available, the following message appears:
Data update
Flash full
Followed by:
Data update
Loader Fehler
➔ Restart the printer.
Numbering
Customized fonts can override the standard fonts included in the firmware partially or fully, or they can
supplement the standard fonts. In the latter case, font numbers of the customized fonts start with 400.
Overview loadedfonts
A list of sample printouts of the loaded fonts can be generated with the status printout PRINT INFO >
Flashdata Status.
This parameter only appears, if any fonts are already loaded into the flash memory.

Fig. 2: Example of status printout „Flashdata status“ - in this case, the same font file was loaded twice. The result is, that in
Block 2 and Block 3 are the same fonts, but with different font numbers.
Deleting fonts
Fonts can be deleted from the flash memory by calling parameter SPECIAL FUNCTION > Data blocks
del..
This parameter only appears, if any fonts are already loaded into the flash memory.
See printer user manual, chapter „Parameter menu“.
