Remarks The command to allocate the memory may have to be performed to initialize the
printer if the current memory areas are too small.
Important:
The M command will also erase all forms and graphics and return printer
default settings.
Default Memory Allocation
The M command line will set image buffer, form memory area, and graphic memory
area. The remainder will automatically be allocated to the external fonts memory,
which is intended to be used for downloading bitmap fonts by means of external
software. As standard, the printer’s memory is allocated like this:
Image buffer: 170K SRAM memory
Form memory: 30K
Graphics memory: 30K 200K total Flash memory
Soft fonts memory: 140K
