5-1 About the Hard Disk
The optional Hard Disk can be installed in your printer. By installing the Hard Disk in your printer, you will be able to use the e-MPS functions (Quick
Copy, Proof and Hold, Private Print, Stored Job Printing (Job Storage), Virtual Mailbox (VMB), Temporary/Permanent Code and Electronic Sorting).
The efficiency of your printer will also be improved with electronic sorting.
NOTE
If the optional Hard Disk is installed in your printer, it will not be possible to create a RAM disk.
5-2 RAM disk
In this machine, it is possible to create a RAM disk, or a portion of memory that is used as a virtual disk. By creating a RAM disk of a desired size from
among the total memory available in the printer, it is possible to perform electronic sorting (which shortens the overall time required for printing) as well
as to save data to and retrieve data from that disk.
IMPORTANT!
Resetting the printer or turning the main switch OFF (O) will erase all data written to the RAM disk.
The RAM disk is created from that portion of the printer's memory that is normally available to the user. Thus, if the size of the RAM disk created is too
large, printing speed may actually be decreased or the machine may run out of available memory.
The factory default setting for the RAM disk is "OFF". In order to create a RAM disk, it is necessary to change the setting on the printer's operation
panel. Refer to "2. Printer settings" on page 2-1 for information on the appropriate procedure.
* If the optional Hard Disk is installed in your printer, it will not be possible to create a RAM disk.
