RAM DISK
2-32
RAM DISK
The RAM DISK function can be used when the total printer memory is 12 MB or more. A RAM DISK
can be set up as a virtual media device by setting a given amount of the total printer memory as the
RAM DISK. This can then be used for reading and writing data just as with a memory card or as a
virtual mail box function (see page 2-34). Note however that data written to the RAM DISK is lost if the
printer is reset or its power turned off. RAM DISK settings can be made from the printer's control
panel.
Notes ____________________________________________________________________
•
The RAM DISK is set from the printer's user memory. The printer's printing speed may therefore
drop or insufficient memory errors result depending on the value of the RAM DISK setting.
•
RAM DISK functions cannot be used if an optional hard disk unit is installed.
