2.10.4 COLLATION (SORT)
When the controller has either an optional SDRAM DIMM or an optional HDD
installed, collation is enabled.
If the memory or HDD becomes full while storing a job that uses collation, the
controller prints the pages that have been stored for collation, empties the memory
or HDD, then continues printing the rest of the pages with collation.
Memory Capacity
16MB (standard)
48MB (with 32MB)
80MB (with 64MB)
With HDD
NOTE: 1) The number of pages is calculated using a sample MS-Word document
that contains 5,000 characters of plain text. The sample document takes
409.6kB of memory space per page.
If the document is more complex, the memory can hold fewer pages. If
the document is simpler, e.g., 1,000 characters per page, the memory
can hold more pages.
2) This is the maximum number of pages that the controller can handle.
If the document is more complex, the HDD can hold fewer pages. Even
if the document is simpler, e.g., 1,000 characters per page, the HDD
cannot hold more than 1,500 pages.
To calculate the pages using the same document as specified in Note 1,
the HDD can hold up to 1,250 pages.
About 500 MB of disk space is used for collation.
