Determining How to Store the Image
Once you have mapped out your graphic image, determine how
you want to store it. You have several options:
◆
Flash
◆
Non-volatile RAM
◆
Volatile RAM
◆
Temporary Storage
Using Flash
Flash memory is available on all the printers. You can use flash
memory when the graphic image is used by several formats,
because you only have to send the graphic image once. This
eliminates the need to send the graphic image repeatedly. See
"Placing the Graphic in a Format," for more information about
using the graphic packet in a format.
Graphics stored in flash memory are saved
when the printer is turned off. Refer to the
Operator’s Handbook to clear flash memory.
