Selecting HP LaserJet 4350 Font On lp command
 
Does anyone have an example of selecting a font in an HP printer from the command line?

Have you read the printer documentation?

I don't see any built in fonts in the printer. All I see is EconoMode for using less toner per page.

These days printers don't usually have several built in fonts. Therefore the font must be selected and implemented in the document, more or less. Actually it is a combination of the document creation software and the printer driver.

What I'm basically saying is that there aren't any fonts to select in the printer.

Can change pitch and size but not font
 
Thanks for your reply. I came to the same conclusion. I got led astray, because the 4350 will display fonts, but I don't know if that's what it will do if directed by a document or not. However, CUPS allows for changing size, but not fonts from what I've been able to research.
