Writing Data (Partitions) to a Memory Card
Data sent from the computer can be written on a memory card. Data written on the card can be
read into printer memory by key operations from the control panel of the printer.
Assuming the card has enough memory capacity, up to 127 partitions can be written on a single
card. Partitions written on the card are automatically assigned names, which can be checked by
printing out a partition list.
Check that the memory card can be written (that write-protection is released).
