Printing a List of
Printer Resources
The TROY Memory Card installed inside your TROY printer contains a re-writeable flash-file system, allowing
the administrator to conveniently install, print, or delete printer resources. The flash-file system’s download area
supports the storage of three types of resources: soft fonts, macros/forms, and data files. The most common type
of data file stored in the TROY Memory Card is the Secure Seal template file (template.dat). It is important to
safeguard the proprietary resources (signatures, company logos, macros, etc.) stored in your printer’s flash-file
system by implementing the security features provided with your TROY Security Printing Solution.
The administrator can add and/or delete any portion of the public and/or secure printer resources contained in the
TROY printer’s flash-file system using the TROY Printer Utility. Typically, the
secure
memory area contains
proprietary printer resources (MICR fonts, digitized signatures, etc.). The
public
memory area usually contains
non-proprietary resources (company logos, macros, forms, etc.) that are available to anyone using the printer.
Individual printer resource files can be deleted by printing a list of the printer’s resources to view the currently
loaded resources and then selecting the desired printer resource file using the file ID number (displayed to the left
of each resource file). The amount of resources (file size) that can be downloaded to the printer memory depends
on the amount of free memory space available in the TROY Memory Card. Printing a list of the printer resources
will display the currently available free memory space in the TROY Memory Card (designated as bytes).
