Max Cache Memory
The Maximum Cache Memory option specifies the size of the
memory block that can be allocated to the font cache. The font
cache stores bitmaps that are created on demand from the font
outlines stored in Flash memory. The cache allows the printer to
print scalable fonts at optimum speed.
To calculate the memory requirement, use this equation:
The allowable range is 50 KBytes to 900 KBytes, in 50 KByte
increments. The default value for this parameter is 200 KBytes.
Max Cache Size
The Maximum Cache Size option specifies the maximum number
of characters that can be stored in the font cache.
The allowable range is 50 to 900 characters, in 50-character
increments. The default value for this parameter is 900 character s.
Max Cached Char
The Maximum Cached Characters option specifies the size of the
largest character that can be stored in the font cache. To ca lculate
the memory requirement, use this equation:
For example, if an application requires the use of a cha racter that is
1 inch high by 1 inch wide, calculate the Maximum Cach ed
Characters value as follows:
Therefore, select a value that is equal to or greater than 11,250.
The closest available value is 12 KBytes.
