Using the Printer
RAM DISK
A RAM DISK can be set up as a virtual media device by setting a given amount of the
total printer memory as the RAM DISK. This can then be used for reading and writing
data just as with a memory card or as a virtual mail box function (see page 52 to 56).
Note however that data written to the RAM DISK is lost if the printer is reset or its
power turned off. RAM DISK settings can be made from the printer’s control panel.
Notes:
• The RAM DISK is set from the printer’s user memory. The printer’s printing speed
may therefore drop or insufficient memory errors result depending on the value of
the RAM DISK setting.
• RAM DISK functions cannot be used if an optional hard disk unit is installed.
