Setting the RAM Disk
The RAM disk is a portion of the printer’s memory that is shared and can
temporarily store print jobs. The RAM disk can only be used for electronic
sorting. Print jobs stored in the RAM disk can then be used to accelerate
multiple copy print jobs, for example. The data contained in the RAM disk
remains there only while the printer is on.
The maximum size of RAM disk should be calculated as follows:
Maximum RAM size = Total printer memory - 9 MB
For example, if the total memory installed in your printer is 16 MB, you
can adjust the RAM disk size to 7 MB, as outlined below. If you try to set
the RAM disk size beyond this restriction, the printer automatically rounds
the value down to the appropriate size. Once the RAM disk size is set, you
need to reset the printer.
To activate the RAM disk in the printer’s memory, you must first use the
printer’s menu selection system.
The printer’s menu selection system allows you to perform the following
operations.
•Setting the RAM disk size
•Reading data
•Writing data
•Deleting data
•Printing a list of data names
The procedures are the same as that for the
Memory Card
menu. See
Operating a Memory Card (CompactFlash Card) Operating a Memory Card (CompactFlash Card) Operating a Memory Card (CompactFlash Card) Operating a Memory Card (CompactFlash Card) on page 1-48 1-48 1-48 1-48 . The
procedure to activate and set the function follows.
The RAM disk is set from the printer’s user memory. Therefore, the
printing speed can drop and/or insufficient memory errors occur,
depending on the settings for the RAM disk.
