The ability to configure your printer's memory doesn’t necessarily
mean that you must change your current configuration. If you’re pres-
ently using all the features you need and the printer is performing effi-
ciently, you shouldn’t feel compelled to reconfigure your printer's
memory. Just remember that if your printing needs change, not only
do you have the ability to increase the amount of printer memory, but
you also can redistribute it where you feel it would best meet your
printing requirements.
QMS Memory Management
Managing the memory on your printer is much the same as managing
your personal income. In money management, you have a certain
amount of income and many ways of spending that income. You
decide where that money goes according to what’s important to you.
There’s no single correct way to manage money, but there is one best
way for you according to your financial obligations. Just as long as
your method works for you.
The same is true for managing the memory on your printer. There’s
no single correct way for everyone to allocate available printer mem-
ory. There is, however, a best way to configure your printer's memory
for maximum efficiency in your specific printing environment. For
example, if you use a large number of PostScript fonts of various
point sizes, you may want to increase the amount of memory allo-
cated to the area specified for PostScript fonts. Or you may want to
increase memory to the area that minimizes slowdowns when collat-
ing large print jobs.
Memory configuration affects these things as well as the number of
jobs that can be accepted by the printer, the number of options
available simultaneously, the number of downloadable fonts and
emulations that can be stored, and overall printer performance.
