Memory Clients

This submenu allows you to allocate the printer’s memory (RAM)
among the various memory clients. The flexibility of defining memory
available to clients allows experienced users to optimize the printer's
performance according to a given set of conditions.

O Caution: Misallocated memory may hinder the performance level of the

printer.

Quick Config

In addition to the ability to set each client’s memory allocation through
the Memory submenu, your QMS 1725 SLS Print System also has a
Quick Config option to aid you in setting your printer for your specific
environment. The Quick Config option is intended to allow you to
specify the following items:

n

Resolution (300 or 600 dpi)

n

Printing mode (simplex or duplex)

n

Page size (letter/executive, A4, or legal)

The Quick Config menu uses these items to allocate the printer’s
memory. The printer does not allow items to be selected that do not
work with the amount of RAM currently installed in the printer.

If you are uncertain about how to configure your printer’s memory,
use only the Quick Config option in this submenu.

Configuring Spooling

The K Mem for Spool, 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.
