allocates 6K for the transmit buffer, and 4K is the maximum for
that buffer. If you define a buffer size that exceeds the
maximum value, an error occurs. However, no information is
lost.
◆
Whenever the printer accepts a memory configuration packet,
it takes effect immediately, causing a printer reset. Any
information contained in the buffers is lost. Resend your
formats, batches, graphics, or fonts to the printer.
◆
If you remap your image buffer, make sure the length and
width specified in your format header are not too large for the
current image buffer. In other words, if you remap for a 4 x 4
inch label, you cannot print a 4 x 6 inch label without receiving
an error, until you change your format header or increase your
image buffer.
Memory Considerations with Downloaded TrueType
Fonts
◆
Downloaded TrueType fonts are only available on the 9840 and
9850 printers.
◆
The size of the TrueType font file, in bytes, is the minimum
amount of memory you must have available in the
downloadable fonts buffer.
◆
The scalable (vector) fonts buffer is used to image the
downloaded fonts (TrueType or bitmapped). If you are using
several downloaded TrueType fonts, you may need 100K or
more in this buffer. The printer does not print the fonts if there
is not enough memory in the scalable (vector) fonts buffer.
◆
To use large point sizes (greater than 60 point), you must
reconfigure memory and increase the size of the scalable
(vector) fonts buffer.
Using Immediate Commands
Immediate commands affect printer operation as soon as the
printer receives them, even if they are included within a packet or
used inside quotation marks.
