Changing Default Graphics Density
You can change default graphics resolution from the factory default of 300 dpi to 75, 100, or 150 dpi, and back to 300. You can set this new default Graphics Density from within the DJPMenu configuration utility.
Changing the Input Buffer Size
You can change the input buffer size from the default value of 16K to 48K.
