When a font cartridge contains more than one font file, the SGR sequence addresses the first font
found on the cartridge. All of the cartridge fonts are listed at the end of the print Font menu.
As indicated above, when additional character sets are available in a character
set cartridge installed at power-up, the character sets are addressable through
Setup (G0 Character set or User Preference Supplemental character set).
Therefore, when the cartridge-based character sets are designed in the built-in
typestyle, it is not necessary to use the SGR escape sequence.
19.4 Density Selection (DECDEN)
The LA600 MultiPrinter supports built-in fonts for three printing densities:
Draft, Near Letter Quality (NLQ), and Letter Quality densities.
Table 19–3 specifies the supported values for the DECDEN command.

1 Draft

Table 19–4 provides the available print densities (addressed by DECDEN) for
each typestyle (addressed by SGR-fonts). In addition, the table provides the
fallback rules that apply when the requested density is not available in the
active typestyle.
