Increasing this client’s memory allows more complicated
non-PostScript jobs to print and allows larger, optional emulations
or multiple emulations to be loaded and ready to process jobs,
without having to be reloaded every time a job in that emulation is
sent.
If an emulation is loaded to process a print job and there is not
enough memory in the emulation client, another emulation already
loaded might be unloaded automatically to obtain the necessary
memory. If you notice a delay in printing between jobs that have
different non-resident emulations, it’s possible that emulations are
being reloaded each time they are run. Adding to the emulation
client might eliminate this unloading and reloading and,
consequently, increase throughput.
Also, increase the emulation client if you are printing complex
non-PostScript jobs that might require more memory to process
correctly.
Temporary Emulation
Listed as K Mem Emul Tmp in the Administration/Memory menu
and as Emulation Temporary elsewhere, this memory is used by
non-PostScript emulations for storing downloaded fonts, forms,
and macros. This allows “context switching,” which is the ability
to retain downloaded fonts and forms even after the printer changes
from one emulation to another. Context switching prevents
repetitive downloading and traffic congestion on networks.
Normally, this memory client does not need to be changed unless
you plan to download many different non-PostScript fonts.
