Device Settings

Select to let the driver check the printing system every 10 minutes for any
changes in optional devices or memory. When a change is detected, the
driver is automatically updated with the new settings.

Memory

Memory is the amount of standard and optional memory installed in the printing
system. To maximize the downloading of printing system fonts, the driver must
be set to match the total printing system memory.

Setting the Memory

By default, the Memory setting matches the standard memory in the printing
system. If optional memory is installed, set the memory in the printer driver to
match the total amount of memory.

1

Install optional DIMM memory in the printing system.

2

In Device Settings, at the Memory text box, select the amount of total installed
memory by clicking the up and down arrows until the text box shows the correct
number of megabytes (MB).

You can use the Auto Configure feature to obtain memory information from the
printing system.

RAM Disk

If a hard disk is not installed, the RAM disk functions as a virtual hard disk,
saving print requests into the printing system’s memory. Because the RAM disk
is volatile memory, all data sent to the printing system is lost when the power is
turned off.

Note: When a hard disk is installed, the RAM disk feature is inactive.

Selecting Ignore application collation in the Compatibility Settings dialog
box lets the driver control collation. RAM disk can then increase the print speed
of collated multiple copies by sending the print job just once.

In a client/server environment, this feature is unavailable to a client logged in as
a restricted user.

Setting RAM Disk

If a hard disk is not installed, you can set the RAM disk to save print requests
into the printing system’s memory.

1

In Device Settings, in the Device options list, select RAM disk.

2

At the RAM disk text box, type or select the size of the RAM disk by clicking the
up and down arrows until the text box shows the correct number of megabytes
(MB).

3

At the printing system's operation panel, turn on RAM disk and set its size.

The maximum RAM disk size depends on the amount of installed memory.
