Storing Resources on Flash Memory or Disk

Complete the following steps to download resources to flash memory or disk using the printer operator panel, MarkVision Professional, or a PJL command.

1Set the download target to flash memory or disk.

Resource Data Collection mode is enabled to the device selected.

2Download the resources to flash memory or disk using PCL emulation or PostScript emulation.

PCL emulation collects and stores the currently defined font, macro, or symbol set information in printer RAM memory. These resources are written to flash memory or disk when Resource Data Collection is disabled (see step 3). Stored resources are also copied to flash memory or disk when a printer language switch occurs.

PostScript emulation writes Type 1 fonts or other resources to flash memory or disk after successfully parsing a definefont operator.

3Set Download Target to RAM.

Resource Data Collection mode is disabled.

Viewing the Contents of Flash Memory and Disk

There are three ways to view the contents of flash memory and disk:

Send the PJL LPRINTDIRECTORY command (see “LPRINT Commands (Information Pages)” on page 3-83).

Select Print Directory from the printer operator panel menus.

Use the MarkVision Professional utility.

The directory lists the storage device (flash or disk), the names of the files, and the file size. See page 6-4for a sample directory.
