Installing the Compact Flash (PF8t Only)
The PF8t is supplied with 4MB flash memory and 8MB of
SDRAM memory. The built-in memory can be expanded by
using a compact flash card if more memory is required for your
application. You will need to purchase and install a compact flash
adapter to use a CF card.
You can select which memory source you want to use: built-in
memory or compact flash. Use Windows HyperTerminal to send
an ESim M command to the printer to select your memory
source. You can only use one memory source.
ESim memory allocation commands are:
M0 Select built-in memory
M1 Select compact flash memory
MF Format the compact flash card
