Chapter 1 Using the Operator Panel
Operating the Storage Device
The printer supports three types of storage device; memory
card, option hard disk, and RAM disk. The memory card and
option hard disk are installed into the dedicated slots of the
printer. The RAM disk is an allocated part of the printer's
memory.
The basic operations of each storage device are the same.
This section mainly explains the operation of the memory
card.
