Printer (Device) Fonts in VB.Net

I found out that VB.Net supports only TrueType and
OpenType fonts, in other words, it doesn't load printer
fonts (device fonts) that are associated with a printer.
I'm writing an application that will print to a POS
printer and I would like to use its printer fonts for
barcode printing. Is there a way I could load those
printer/device fonts in my code?
