PCL memory
This specifies the memory capacity to be used for the PCL5e. This memory is to
store the interim data for creating the print image. By increasing the memory
capacity, the printing speed may also be increased.
PostScript memory
This specifies the memory capacity to be used for PostScript. This item is dis-
played when the PostScript Software Kit (option) has been installed.
Receive buffer
This is the area for temporarily storing data received from the computer. A
receive buffer is prepared for each port to enable receiving of data from multiple
ports at the same time. The types of receive buffer are as follows:
●
Receive Buffer - Parallel
●
Receive Buffer - LPD Spool
●
Receive Buffer - NetWare
●
Receive Buffer - SMB Spool
●
Receive Buffer - IPP Spool
●
Receive Buffer - EtherTalk
●
Receive Buffer - Port 9100
If the capacity of the receive buffer is increased, the processing of printing might
be faster. Adjust the buffer capacity according to the print data volume. For ports
that are not in use, it is recommended to disable them and allocate their memory
for other uses.
For LPD/SMB/IPP, you can specify spool processing. The default values are Off.
The types of spool include Memory and Hard Disk. When Memory has been set,
data exceeding the allocated capacity cannot be received. When this occurs, set
it to Hard Disk.
●
To set EtherTalk, you will need the PostScript Software Kit (option).
●
For IPP, Memory cannot be set.

Setting Spool
Spool mode
This is the mode to save print data output from application program to the spool
file in this machine temporarily for print processing. The spool file destination
can be selected from the memory inside the machine or the internal hard disk.
As the print data that has been spooled is processed in this machine, they will
be released quickly by the application program. Processing from multiple com-
puters can be done at the same time.
