HP (Hewlett-Packard) HP LaserJet 5 Printer User Manual


 
Keeping Downloaded Resources in Memory
When only the PCL personality is installed, the printer uses all available
memory to maintain downloaded resources. When two or more
personalities are installed, the printer reserves a portion of memory for
each personality’s resources. The printer deletes downloaded resources
from its memory when you change personalities or resolutions.
For printers with more than one personality, Resource Saving enables
the printer to keep downloaded resources in memory under most
conditions. PCL-only printers do not require Resource Saving because
available memory is automatically allocated to keep downloaded
resources in memory.
Resource Saving in PCL and PostScript Printers
When the PostScript option is installed, Resource Saving automatically
becomes available if 8 MBytes (or 13 MBytes in duplex mode) of
memory or more are available in the printer. By default, the printer
automatically allocates resources to each printer personality, depending
on the amount of memory each personality needs.
Most users will not need to customize the printer’s Resource Saving
configuration, but you can change the amount of memory allocated to
each printer personality through Resource Saving (see the procedure on
the following page).
