Memory

menu as a starting point before trying manually to configure your printer’s memory. It provides a simple method of defining how much memory should go to each of the clients for the most complicated printing conditions in your environment. Menu options allow you to specify the largest media size you plan to use for each resolution. Memory is then automatically allocated to the clients that require it. Any excess memory is allocated to the excess memory client. See chapter 5, “Additional Technical Information,” for more information on memory and the frame buffer client.

»Note: The printer does not allow you to choose features that do not work with the amount of memory currently installed.

Using this option does not change the media size. It just ensures that you have enough memory allocated to the appropriate clients to print on the requested media size.

PostScript Fonts

The K Mem for PS Fonts memory client is the number of kilobytes of RAM dedicated to caching previously scaled bitmap representations of fonts for the PostScript emulation interpreter. This reduces the number of times a PostScript font must be converted from outline
