3–46 Configuring the Printer
Maximum Cache Size
This option is used to specify the maximum number of characters that can be
stored in the font cache.
The allowable range is 50 to 900 characters, in 50–character increments. The
default value for this parameter is 900 characters.
Maximum Cached Characters
This option is used to specify the size of the largest character that can be stored in
the font cache. To calculate the memory requirement, use this equation:
horizontal
resolution
x
vertical
resolution
character
height (inches)
character
width (inches)
xx
8
For example, if an application requires the use of a character that is 1 inch high
by 1 inch wide, calculate the Maximum Cached Characters value as follows:
300 x 300 1xx
8
1
=
1
1,250
Therefore, select a value that is equal to or greater than 11,250. The closest
available value is 12 KBytes.
The allowable range is 1 KBytes to 20 KBytes, in 1–KByte increments. The
default value for this parameter is 1 KBytes.
Maximum Fonts Loaded
This option is used to specify the number of scalable font outlines that can be
concurrently loaded into RAM in the printer.
The allowable range is 1 to 20 fonts, in 1–font increments. The default value for
this parameter is 5 fonts.
