Printer Overview
The printer combines the use of Flash, RAM, and nonvolatile RAM
for program execution. The Flash is used for all program, font, and
emulation storage. New fonts, emulations, or program updates can
be downloaded to Flash memory via the parallel or serial interface,
or through the PrintNet
print image storage, and execution variables. The non-volatile RAM
stores configuration, statistics, and internal parameters.
The printer model numbers indicate printing speed and physical
configuration.
