"Font" is from the same root as "fountain" and in fact "font" is an archaic word for fountain.
The origin of the usage in type comes from early printing presses that used metal type (set backward, and inked to create a right-reading printed image). An entire set of letters, upper- and lowercase, numerals, symbols, etc. was cast from the same vat--or "font"--of molten metal (lead).
