Disk space left for system
The MicroPress RIP allows a minimum amount of free disk space to be
available for use by other applications. DEFAULT: 5 MB

Minimum memory left for system
The MicroPress RIP allows a minimum amount of free memory to be available
for use by other applications. This memory is also for use by the operating
system. If this value is too small, the operating system will start paging, which
will degrade performance. DEFAULT: 512 KB

system. If this value is too small, the operating system will start paging, which

Band size for printing buffer
The value specifies the size in kilobytes (KB) of the bands into which the RIP
divides a page for rendering, in the slow scan direction. Larger bands mean the
page is divided into fewer pieces. Changing the size will alter performance
characteristics. Large pages (either in area or bits-per-pixel) mean that many
fewer scan lines can be accommodated in each band and this can slow down
the system. On the other hand, too many scan lines in a band means that each
band takes longer to process and could lead to stalling the output device.
DEFAULT: 256 KB

Minimum compression ratio
This option is effective only when the check box Compress page buffer is
selected. It allows compression to be limited in cases where there is a
significant saving of disk space. For example, if the value entered is 60%, the
RIP compresses only bands in page buffers that compress to a size smaller
than 60% of their uncompressed size. Entering a value of 100% will have all
bands compressed. DEFAULT: 66.7%

Memory for RIP
The MicroPress RIP is allocated this amount of memory, less the amount
specified in the Minimum memory left for system field. From this total, the
RIP allocates printer and network buffers. All memory not used for these
buffers is used by the the RIP for processing jobs. The final allocations used
are reported in the RIP Monitor window when the RIP starts. If there is
insufficient memory to allocate the buffers requested, the RIP tries the
following methods of automatic recovery, in this order: Reduce the Network
buffer to a minimum of 64 KB, reduce the Printer buffer to a minimum of 512
KB, reduce the Minimum memory left for system to a minimum of 512 KB. If
there is still not enough memory to give the RIP at least 4096 KB, the RIP will
display a warning and quit.
If the Memory for RIP option is not selected, the RIP is allocated all the
available physical memory, less the amount specified in the Minimum
memory left for system field. DEFAULT: 65536 KB

Memory reserve for RIP
MicroPress devices require data at a particular rate. For this reason, this option
is set to 0 and the Allow use of all available memory field is not selected. If
job cannot all be fitted into memory at once, the RIP will paint partial page
buffers to disk. To avoid this, allocate extra temporary memory using this
option. DEFAULT: 0 KB
Note: If a large amount of extra temporary memory is allocated, the operating
system may start paging. Paging slows the system down more than painting
partial page buffers to disk. Allocations less than 4 MB of extra temporary
memory are recommended.

Allow use for all available memory
There are some instances when the RIP cannot paint partial page buffers to
disk. For example, when recombining preseparated jobs or using TrapWorks.
In such instances, select this option. All available physical and virtual memory
will be used to try and complete the job. Using all the memory may severely
degrade performance until the job has finished. DEFAULT: Not selected

Allow stop/start
Not applicable for MicroPress devices. Allows a printer to issue a stop/start
command without loosing the job. See Page Buffering and Network Buffer
for more information. DEFAULT: Not selected

RIP encounters an error. DEFAULT: Not selected
