Format Buffer Used to store formats, batch data, and
graphics. Use the following formula to
calculate the required format buffer size:
Linecount x 50/1024
Linecount is the number of lines in your
format packet including the format header
and all the options.
The result of the above calculation is in
kilobytes.
Downloadable
Fonts Buffer Used to store downloaded soft TrueType
fonts. To determine the size of your
downloadable fonts, send a font packet. The
file size, in bytes, is the minimum amount
needed in this buffer. See "Using the Font
Packet" for more information.
Scalable (Vector)
Fonts Buffer Used to image the scalable or downloaded
TrueType font characters. Increasing this
buffer size allows more characters to be
saved in cache memory, so the characters do
not have to be re-built the next time they are
printed. Use
0 if you are not using
scalable/TrueType fonts. This buffer must be
allocated as volatile (
R ) RAM.
The printer does not print the fonts if there is
not enough memory in this buffer to image
them.
