Brother QL-500 Printer User Manual


 
CHAPTER 4 CONTROL PANEL
4–33
Note
Even if you set the resolution to more than 300 dpi in this mode, the
printer may not be able to print large files at your selected resolution
because of insufficient memory. However, it automatically decreases the
higher resolution that you set to 300 dpi to print them. While the printer is
printing, the display prompts 01 PR300 … ”
If the printer cannot print files even at 300 dpi, the MEMORY FULL
error occurs. See TROUBLESHOOTING” in Chapter 7.
This automatic resolution decrease function works in the BR-Script 2
mode and other emulation modes with the page protection on. See also
PAGE PROTECTION” in this chapter.
When you want to print without decreasing the resolution, you must
expand the memory capacity of the printer.
Expand the memory capacity referring to the table below. It shows the
minimum size of memory required in the BR-Script 2 mode.
