Appendix C Printer Memory and Expansion | 318 |
I/O Buffering
To allow the computer to continue working without waiting for the print job to finish queuing, the printer uses a portion of its memory (an I/O buffer) to hold jobs in progress. (If I/O buffering is off, no memory is reserved for this function.)
In most cases, it is best to let the printer automatically reserve memory for I/O buffering.
To speed network printing, you might want to increase the amount of memory reserved for I/O buffering.
To change the I/O Buffer setting:
1. | From the I/O Menu, set I/O BUFFER=ON (page 302). | ||
2. | Also from the I/O Menu, set I/O SIZE to the desired value. | ||
|
| When you change the I/O Buffer setting, all downloaded resources (such | |
| Note |
| |
|
|
| as fonts or macros) will need to be downloaded again, unless they are |
|
|
| stored on an optional hard disk or flash DIMM. |
