3.9 Operating the Storage Device

3.9.2Using the Option Hard Disk

Installing the option hard disk into the printer allows you to perform the following operations on the hard disk.

•Reading data

•Writing data

•Deleting data

•Formatting hard disk

•Printing a list of data names (partitions)

When an option hard disk is inserted into the printer for the first time, it must be formatted before use. If the option hard disk is not formatted, the >Format menu will automatically appear on the message display.

The operations of the option hard disk are the same as those of the memory card. See the relevant sections in Section 3.9.1 Using the Memory Card on page 3-60.

When data is written to the hard disk, the name automatically given to the corresponding file will be DataH001 (for the 1st file), DataH002 (for the 2nd file), DataH003 (for the 3rd file), etc.

3.9.3Using the RAM Disk

The RAM disk is a memory space shared within the printer memory that can temporarily store print jobs. The RAM disk can be used only for electronic sorting. The stored print job can then be used to print multiple copies of the job reducing the total amount of time required to print the whole job. It acts similar to the hard disk except that the data is effective only during the printer is powered up. By default, the RAM disk is not activated (Off).

To use the RAM disk, activate and enter the desired size of the RAM disk in the manner described below. The maximum RAM disk size can be calculated as follows:

Maximum RAM disk size = Total printer memory -36 MB

For example, if the total memory installed in your printer is 256 MB, you can set 224 MB of RAM disk. If you attempt to set the RAM disk size beyond this restriction, the printer automatically round it down so that the size is always 36 MB less than the total printer memory. Once the RAM disk size is set, the printer must be reset.

To activate RAM disk in the printer's memory, first you must set the RAM disk mode to On and set the desired data size for the RAM disk as descriped in the following section. This allows you to perform the following operations on the RAM disk.

•Reading data

•Writing data

•Deleting data

•Printing a list of data names (partitions)

The operations of the RAM disk are the same as those of the memory card. See the relevant sections in Section 3.9.1 Using the Memory Card on page 3-60. When data is written to the RAM disk, the name automatically given to the corresponding file will be DataH001 (for the 1st file), DataH002 (for the 2nd file), DataH003 (for the 3rd file), etc.
