Hard Drive/Flash Memory
Considerations
If you install the optional hard drive in the printer, it will
significantly increase the amount of memory available for
processing jobs and storing downloaded information
(such as fonts, forms, overlays (macros) and secure jobs).
The hard disk is used for the following:
• Support of the PostScript file system.
• Support of the PJL/PCL file system.
• Receiving raw (i.e., unprocessed) data for secure jobs,
proof jobs, and collated copy jobs.
• Downloading fonts, forms, and overlays.
Disk Initialization
The disk is preformatted and requires no initialization.
The disk may be returned to its initial state, with no
loaded fonts, macros or secure jobs, by selecting the
Disk Initialize
item from the Reset Menu or from
CentreWare DP.
Flash Initialization
Flash memory requires formatting before the first use.
Formatting may be done by selecting the
Flash Format
item from the Reset Menu .
