Using A Temporary Graphics Buffer; Using Flash Memory - Avery Dennison ADTP1 System Administrator Manual

U s i n g a T e m p o r a r y G r a p h i c s B u f f e r
The printer stores temporary graphic data in the image buffer until the graphic is printed,
then it is cleared from memory.
However, when using multiple temporary graphics, enable a temporary graphics buffer to
quickly image/print them.
Select To
Disable The printer uses the default image buffer. This is the default. The
printer may pause between printing labels with different temporary
graphics on each label.
Enable The printer uses a temporary graphics buffer. Using this buffer allows
the printer to image and print temporary graphics without pausing
between printing labels.

Use these basic guidelines when storing files in your printer's flash memory.
Your printer has volatile RAM (packets deleted when the printer is off) and flash
♦
memory (packets saved when the printer is off).
Flash memory must be formatted before any packets can be saved. See
♦
Flash Memory" for more information.
Formats, graphics, and check digits can be saved in flash (a copy is automatically
♦
placed in RAM). Any packets saved in flash cannot exceed the memory available in
RAM.
There is not a 1-to-1 ratio between the RAM memory (formats, graphics, and check
♦
digits) in your printer and the memory in your PC. For example, a file that is 5K in
Windows may require 15-20K to store in your printer.
Use temporary storage for graphics that are only used once or twice. However, if you
♦
have a logo that is used on multiple formats, save the graphic in flash.
Each line in a packet requires the same amount of memory. The smaller the format,
♦
the less memory required to save it.
The flash memory options are in the table below.
