Size (Meg) (2 digits; default variable; range 00-50)
Number of megabytes of disk space to be allocated for
storing collated print jobs. Ten megabytes of collation
disk space is probably sufficient for most printing
applications.
Spool Overflow
Use this selection to specify which disk and how much disk space
is to be used to send print jobs when the job cannot be
accommodated by RAM space. The Administration / Memory / K
Mem for Spool selection explained earlier in this chapter is where
the memory for spool buffers is defined. Spool overflow allows the
user to allocate hard disk space to be used for spooling data the
same as RAM. The printer attempts to realize as much of this value
as it can. Turn the printer off and back on again for this value to
take effect. (The # symbol represents any hard disk).
Location (default DSK#; range DSK0-DSK6)
List of installed hard disks.
Size (Meg) (3 digits; default variable; range 000 - 255)
Number of megabytes of disk space to be allocated to
spool print job data in addition to RAM.
Configuring Optional Features
Several of the printer options available (for example, an external
hard disk) affect printer configuration and the Configuration menu.
When an option is installed, its configuration information merges
into the Configuration menu. New menu entries may appear, and
the range options for existing configuration values may be
extended. See the documentation accompanying the option to learn
exactly how it affects the Configuration menu.
