HP 5000n manual Printer Memory, Random Access Memory RAM, Read Only Memory ROM

	Printer Memory
Note	If the printer encounters difficulty managing available memory, a
	clearable warning message will be displayed on the Control Panel.
	Some printer messages are affected by the Auto Continue and
	Clearable Warning settings from the Configuration Menu in the printer’s
	Control Panel. If CLEARABLE WARNING=JOB is set on the Control Panel,
	warning messages display on the Control Panel until the end of the job
	from which they were generated. If CLEARABLE WARNING=ON is set,
	warning messages display on the Control Panel until [Go] is pressed.
	If an error occurs that prevents printing and AUTO CONTINUE=ON is set,
	the printer goes offline for 10 seconds before it returns online. If AUTO
	CONTINUE=OFF is set, the message displays until [Go] is pressed.
	Read Only Memory (ROM)
	Besides storing microprocessor control programs, the ROM stores
	dot patterns of internal character sets (fonts).
	Random Access Memory (RAM)
	The RAM contains the page and I/O buffers and the font storage area.
	It stores printing and font information received from the host system,
	and can also serve to temporarily store a full page of print image data
	before the data is sent to the print engine (see “Page Protect” on page
	5-21). RAM memory capacities for each printer are shown in “Printer
	Features” on page 1-2. Memory capacity can be increased by adding
	DIMMs to the Formatter PCA. Note that adding memory (DIMMs)
	may also increase the print speed of complex graphics.
