MCommand - Memory Allocation

Description This command no longer changes memory allo- cation. It was originally used for SRAM and early model flash printers. The command now allows the programmer to set the size of forms memory only. The reminder of the storage memory will be shared by soft fonts and graph- ics data.

Syntax Mp1,p2,p3

Parameters p1 = Parameter ignored, but required to pro- cess. Represents Image buffer size in whole KBytes.

p2 = Form(s) memory size in whole KBytes. The parameter, p2 (form memory size), inversely effects the size of the shared graphics/soft fonts memory.

p3 = Parameter ignored, but required to pro- cess. Graphics (and soft font) memory size in whole Kbytes.

If the M command is issued, then all three pa- rameters must be present.

Available memory and the current allocation of memory can be displayed with the U command or an AutoSense procedure, see the printer user’s man- ual for details.
