Printer Configuration

PostScript Heap

The K Mem for PSHeap memory client, listed on the status page as
Heap, is the number of kilobytes of RAM dedicated to the PostScript
emulation interpreter. This memory client holds downloaded Post-
Script emulation fonts, operators, and forms.

Printer Memory

The MB Printer Mem memory client, listed as System Use on the sta-
tus page, is the number of megabytes of RAM available to be split
among the various memory clients. The size of this client's memory
limits the number of jobs that may be queued simultaneously. When
this client's memory is exhausted, the printer slows down, and the
hosts are forced to wait.

Spooling

The K Mem for Spool memory client, listed on the status page as
Host Input, is the total number of kilobytes of RAM allocated to all
spooling buffers. This memory client stores incoming data from the
various interfaces until it is processed and printed.
