3–48 Configuring the Printer
created on demand from the font outlines stored in Flash memory. The cache
allows the printer to print scalable fonts at optimum speed.
To calculate the memory required, use this equation:
horizontal
resolution x vertical
resolution
character
height (inches)
character
width (inches)
x x

# of characters
to be cached
x
The allowable range is 50 KBytes to 900 KBytes, in 50 KByte increments. The
default value for this parameter is 900 KBytes.
Maximum Cached Char
The Maximum Cached Characters option specifies the size of the largest
character that can be stored in the font cache. To calculate the memory
requirement, use this equation:
horizontal
resolution
x
vertical
resolution
character
height (inches)
character
width (inches)
x x
8
For example, if an application requires the use of a character that is 1 inch high
by 1 inch wide, calculate the Maximum Cached Characters value as follows:
300 x 300 1 x x
8
1
= 11,250
Therefore, select a value that is equal to or greater than 11,250. The closest
available value is 12 KBytes.
The allowable range is 1 KBytes to 20 KBytes, in 1-KByte increments. The
default value for this parameter is 1 KBytes.
Standard Chars.
The Standard Chars option specifies the thickness or stroke weight of the text
fonts. The allowable range is 0 to 512, in increments of 1. The default is 340.
Bold Chars.
The Bold chars option specifies the thickness or stroke weight of the text fonts.
The allowable range is 0 to 512, in increments of 1. The default is 448.
