Q Can XKP user-defined characters be printed?
A Yes.

User-defined characters created under the XKP standard are defined in TrueType form.
Display and printing is carried out by switching to this font.
For this reason, if the printer is capable of printing TrueType fonts, XKP user-defined characters can be printed without any extra equipment.
Because TrueType fonts are outline fonts, it is possible to print smooth characters based on the printer's resolution. If the printer's resolution is high, the output will look better.
