The DeskJet 500 has a single size (12 point) Times Roman font resident,
as well as Courier and Letter Gothic.  Earlier models (DeskJet and DeskJet
Plus) do not have Times.  So, to get a wider selection of fonts, you need
a memory cartridge and soft fonts, or a font cartridges.

Another way to go is Power Pak from Atech, or More Fonts, which produce
graphics images that are sent to the printer.  These do not require memory
or font cartridges.

Good luck.  -- Duane
