2. A non-volatile clock memory, which retains data when the printer is switched off as it is battery
supported. It stores data generated by real-time clock and can store values of some variable
fields such as non-volatile counters.
3. A volatile working memory, which loses data stored in it when the printer is switched off. It is used
by the printer to fetch data to be printed on an ongoing basis. Each time the printer is switched on,
data are transferred from the non-volatile read-only memory to the volatile working memory. The
function enables the user to start printing a text that has previously been stored in the non-volatile
memory without the need for a computer.
If a text or print parameters are modified while the printer is on, always download the modified
data to the printer before printing starts. In order to transfer data to the volatile working memory
click the
button on the communication panel of the control program. If the data is also
to be used when the printer is switched on again at a later time, it needs to be saved in the non-
volatile read-only memory by clicking the
button (which is available after the
Adv.
options
box has been ticked).

The parameters can then be transferred to the printer volatile memory by clicking the
button and then to the non-volatile read-only memory by clicking the
button (which is
available after the
Adv. options
box has been ticked), if they should be retained after the printer has
been switched off. See also section
