RAM DISK
A RAM DISK can be set up as a virtual media device by setting a given amount of the total printer
memory as the RAM DISK. This can then be used for reading and writing data just as with a memory
card or as a virtual mail box function (see page 2-34). Note however that data written to the RAM
DISK is lost if the printer is reset or its power turned off. RAM DISK settings can be made from the
printer's control panel.
Notes_____________________________________________________________________
·
The RAM DISK is set from the printer's user memory. The printer's printing speed may therefore
drop or insufficient memory errors result depending on the value of the RAM DISK setting.
·
RAM DISK functions cannot be used if an optional hard disk unit is installed.
