Genicom 3400e Manual De Usuario

  C d   39

To receive the best performance from your printer, you must understand 
how to use the printer memory. The following sections can help you 
determine the most efficient way to use your printer memory. 

There is enough storage memory in the printer to store several different 
label formats and still retain enough memory to store downloaded fonts, 
graphics, and data. Be careful of how you use your printer memory. 

The printer uses flash memory for storing tables, pages, formats, fonts, and 
user-defined characters (UDCs). The 3400e printer has 128K of flash 
memory available for storage. If you require additional storage memory, 
you can purchase flash SIMM for the printer. 

The printer supports these parameters independent of the amount of 
memory installed or allocated by the printer: 

•  Maximum number of formats: 99  

(You can edit formats 1 to 99. You cannot edit default format 0.) 

•  Fields per format: 200 

•  Maximum data buffer size for a field: 3550 

• Maximum number of UDCs: 100 

•  Maximum number of user-defined fonts: 16 

There are limits to the number of formats, fonts, graphics, or pages that 
you can store in the printer. You can define up to 16 fonts, but there may 
not be enough room depending on the amount of memory being used for 
other purposes. The more formats, graphics, and fonts you store, the less 
memory is available. 

When you run into a memory usage problem, use PrintSet to see how 
much memory remains available. You must upload the memory 
information from the printer first. Refer to the PrintSet online help for 
more information. 

If you find that it is necessary to increase your available memory, you can 
do one of the following: 

•  Increase the amount of available memory by using the Memory Reset 

portion of the Test and Service menu. See “Resetting the Memory on 
Your Printer” on page 58 for more information.
