that is written in PJL or KPDL (PostScript).
Operating the RAM Disk
The RAM disk is a memory space shared within the printer memory that
can temporarily store print jobs. The RAM disk can be used only for
electronic sorting. The stored print job can then be used to print multiple
copies of the job reducing the total amount of time required to print the
whole job. It acts similarly to the hard disk except that the data is effective
only when the printer is powered up.
To set up the RAM disk, the option hard disk must not be installed.
To use the RAM disk, activate and enter the desired size of the RAM disk
in the manner described below. The maximum RAM disk size can be
calculated as follows:
