—With the <ESC>E command to reset the system.
—With the Printer Job Language command (<ESC>12345X) to

guide for more details on this command.
—The Administration/Emulations/PCL5/Retain Temporary menu
option allows you to save objects across job boundaries.
Permanent
These objects reside on the current resource, and are deleted if they
are in RAM when the power is turned off or via an explicit delete.
» Note: The Printer Reset command (<ESC>E) and the Printer Job
Language command (<ESC>%-12345X) don’t delete permanent
objects.
External
These objects reside on the additional resources.
Object
All objects are temporary when first created. They can be made per-
manent objects through PCL commands. Both temporary or perma-
nent objects can become external objects when the current resource
is changed (for temporary objects the Administration/Emulations/
PCL5/Retain Temporary menu must be set to On, True, or On Com-
patibility). External objects become permanent when the resource on
which they reside becomes the current resource.
User-downloaded PCL objects (with the exception of palettes) are
identified by an ID when they are downloaded. The ID is usually set
by the file performing the download. If not, the system will provide a
default value (normally 0, but this can be set using the %%Include-
Feature:install DOC). If two objects of the same type are provided
with the same ID, the last one received replaces the former.
» Note: From this point on downloaded objects are accessible by their
IDs.
