In particular, see section 4.9.1, "Fonts," of the Interpress language standard. A font is there defined as a data structure which can be fully described and transmitted as part of an Interpress master (i.e. as part of a document in Interpress form). It is true that no currently available Xerox printer product supports this feature of the Interpress language. But this is a discussion about the Interpress language, not about particular implementations. The same message stated that "You can do it [download fonts using Interpress], but at least on Xerox 2700s, 'you don't want to.'" On the 2700 you cannot do it using Interpress: The 2700 is not an Interpress printer.
