CHAPTER 6: Flash Memory and Disk

Flash memory and disk devices are used to store permanent fonts, macros, and symbol sets. The disk device is also used to buffer print jobs, collate large jobs, and store job statistics. Unlike RAM memory, these devices retain the following information when the printer is powered off, or when the printer switches languages:

PCL emulation permanent bitmapped and scalable fonts

PCL emulation permanent macros

PCL emulation symbol sets

PostScript Type 1 fonts

Files created using the PostScript emulation file operators

Demonstration files

Some printers have connectors that let you install optional flash memory or a disk device; other printers may offer one or the other of these devices as a standard feature. Refer to your printer documentation for more information.

When first installed in the printer, the flash memory or disk may be unformatted. You must format the device before you download resources. A message displays on the printer operator panel or through MarkVision Professional if the device is unformatted.

Warning: When you format flash memory or a disk, all information currently stored on the device is lost.

If flash memory or a disk becomes full while downloading resources, a message displays on the printer operator panel or through MarkVision Professional. The file being downloaded is not saved unless room is available to store the entire file.
