Memory usage and requirements
With 16MB or 32MB of memory standard, the Optra W810 can process complex jobs in
both PostScript 3 emulation and PCL emulation. However, the more complex the job, the
more memory is required to process the job.
In addition, the relationship of performance to available memory makes calculating mem-
ory demands even more complex. It is often true, especially with graphics-heavy jobs, that
the more memory the printer has available, the faster the job prints.
The memory required to process a particular job is affected by many factors, including:
•
Print job complexity
•
Page Protect setting
•
Jam Recovery setting
•
Collation setting
•
Resource Save setting
•
Job Buffering setting
•
Network environment
•
Downloaded resources
•
Print and Hold jobs
Print job complexity
The single most important factor is the print job itself. The complexity of the job (the use of
multiple fonts and large graphics) determines how much memory is needed. Complexity
refers to the type of data printed, not how much data is printed. For example, a

memory, you must
remove the 16MB
DIMM shipped with
the printer and install
a 128MB DIMM.
