linefeed and carriage return information. (Printer macros are
transparent to the user.)

between data processing devices.

This is commonly referred to as just “memory.” RAM is
available on RAM chips and holds information that is used by

print job, when you exit an application, or when the printer is
reset, depending on what kind of information it is: incoming
data for printing, downloaded soft fonts or printer macros for
the current PDL.
Random Deletions See Deletions - Random.
