Storing Print Data
The print engine memory receives, holds, and processes data from
incoming print jobs. It manages downloaded resources, including PCL
language, soft fonts, symbol sets, macros, and patterns. The print engine
also stores PostScript fonts, forms, patterns, and dictionaries.
If you download a large number of fonts, the 420-MByte hard disk
optimizes the functionality of your print engine.
When two or more personalities (such as PCL and PostScript) are
installed, the print engine reserves a portion of memory for each
personality’s resources. This feature is called Resource Saving. It
enables the print engine to keep downloaded resources (such as fonts,
forms, and macros) in memory under most conditions.
Saving Resources
Resource Saving is automatically available on the print engine. By
default, the print engine allocates resources to each print engine
personality, based on the amount of memory each personality needs.
Most users do not need to customize the Resource Saving configuration,
but you can change the amount of memory allocated to each print
engine personality.
See Chapter 4, “Mopier Control Panel,” to learn how to configure
memory for your print engine.
