2.6. Operating a Memory Card

Formatting a Memory Card

Formatting allows data to be written to the card. A new memory card must be formatted before it can be used
in the printer.

Formatting destroys any existing data on the memory card.

First check that the memory card is writable (for example that the memory card is not write-protected, and
its internal battery is not exhausted).

When the formatting operation is successfully completed, the printer automatically prints out a formatting
information page as shown below.

Card size. The total size of the memory card memory in bytes.
Data size. The size the printer uses for its system in bytes.
Remaining size. The size remaining in the memory card for storing data in bytes.

Printing a list of data names

The printer prints a list of all data names (referred to as partitions) stored in a memory card for reference.
(Printing a list is also available for a font card.)

The printout (example above) includes the following information.

Partition (data) number. Reference number for each written data.
Name. The destination name of the written data as assigned automatically by the printer.
Size. The size of the written data in bytes.
Type. The type of the written data i.e., whether it is host data (Data) or font data (Font).
Card size. The total capacity of the memory card in bytes.
Data size. The total size of the data stored in the memory card in bytes.
Remaining size. The size of the capacity remaining in the memory card for storing further data, including the amount of
memory that the printer uses for its system (approximately 70 bytes).
Current terminating string. The PRESCRIBE 2e command that terminates a writing operation when writing to memory
card using the PRESCRIBE 2e RWER W command; usually WRED.
