Here's the appropriate section for my HP4350:

:CPICOR
  CPI=10
  ASCIIFNT=  204
  FNTWTH=   108
  FNTATR=    1
  DATA ='1B28733070'X
        '31332E3368'X
        '3073'X
        '3162'X
        '3430393954'X.
:CPICOR
  CPI=12
  ASCIIFNT=  223
  FNTWTH=   96
  FNTATR=    1
  DATA =''X.
:CPICOR
  CPI=15
  ASCIIFNT=  281
  FNTWTH=   72
  FNTATR=    1
  DATA ='1B28733070'X
        '32302E3068'X
        '3073'X
        '3162'X
        '3430393954'X.
