Specifying font cartridges to use with a printer

Edit online

Until you specify the font cartridges that can be used with a new printer, the print service does not consider any font cartridges installable on that printer and rejects any print requests that require a font cartridge.

To specify a list of font cartridges to use with a printer, type:
```
  /usr/sbin/lpadmin -p printer_name -S font_cartridge_list
```
font_cartridge_list is a list of font cartridge names, separated by commas or spaces. If you use spaces to separate the names, enclose the entire list (but not the -S) in quotes. These are the only font cartridges considered installable on the printer.
To remove the font cartridge list from the printer, enter:
```
  /usr/sbin/lpadmin -p printer_name -S none
```

After you specify the list of font cartridges installable on the printer, you can install them. See Changing a font cartridge on a printer.
