rotatable fonts, and the ability to merge text and graphics. Your

features are
■ Adobe PostScript page description language
PostScript is a programming language with extensive graphics
capabilities. PostScript describes the appearance of text, geo-
metric shapes, and images to the printer. PostScript can rotate,

■ Two megabytes of RAM resident which is expandable to
three, four, or six megabytes as your needs grow
RAM (Random Access Memory) expansions improve per-
formance of the QMS-PS 410 printer by allowing more room
for font downloading (storage in RAM), font caching (allocat-
ing the division of font storage space in RAM), and enlarging
the printer buffer (allowing your printer to accept larger jobs
in order to free up your host computer).
