It was my understanding that the LN01 was to be released in two "phases".
The first phase was as a line printer replacement: Fixed text fonts, fixed
line-printer-like interface. The second phase would support graphics, multi-
ple fonts, etc. As I understand it, the printer itself won't change - what
is missing is host support (in VMS) and documentation. It sounds as if the
manual you have, which mentions the font-loading escape sequence but gives
no information about how to use it, is a "phase 1" document into which a little
"phase 2" information slipped. You might want to ask your DEC salesman whether
additional information is available yet.
