RAM
RAM stands for random access memory. This memory
can be written to and read from, and information stored
in RAM can be accessed in an arbitrary manner.
This part of the printer memory is used to store fonts
and resources that are used by the printer’s two
emulations: PCL and PostScript.
Adding RAM
The Silentwriter 1760 comes with 4 MB of RAM , and
the 1765 comes with 6 MB of RAM. Expanding your
printer’s RAM has the following advantages.
•
Speeds up the printing process by making more
memory available for processing large jobs
•
Allows you to store more soft fonts for printing
•
Allows you to use the Resource Saving feature
note:
If you frequently send PostScript print jobs,
we recommend that your printer have at least 6 MB of
RAM.
The Silentwriter 1760/65 has two slots where you can
install industry-standard, 72-pin, 70-nanosecond SIMM.
You can add up to 48 additional MB of RAM to your
printer. 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, and 32 MB SIMMs are available.
Instructions for adding RAM to your printer are
provided in Chapter 2, “Install Printer Options,” in the
Easy Printer Setup Guide.
Downloading Soft Fonts to Printer RAM
You can download fonts from your computer to the
printer RAM and store them there for future use. This
will speed printing of jobs that use those fonts.
See “Downloading Fonts as Permanent” on page 5-12
for instructions for downloading PCL soft fonts to the
printer RAM.
Resource Saving
Resource Saving allocates RAM memory to the PCL and
PostScript emulations to save downloaded fonts when
you switch from one emulation to another. All
permanent soft fonts are then stored for a printer
language until it is enabled. Without Resource Saving,
downloaded resources are lost when the printer
switches emulations.
Resource Saving is only available when 7 MB or more of
RAM are installed. Then, the printer allocates a default
amount of memory to both PCL and PostScript. The
default amount allocated depends on how much RAM
is installed. For detailed information on this feature, see
the definition on page 1-13.
