Special Printer Requirements
This appendix describes requirements specific to individual printers.
HP Printers with Flash Memory
If an HP printer has only flash memory, the storing command in the flash memory is the same as if the
document was stored on a hard drive (with this type of printer, the default is the hard drive). If the HP
printer has both flash memory and a hard drive, you can use either one or the other storing command,
according to your needs.
Lexmark Printers
Set a Port for Binary Mode on the Optra+/Optra S
On the Optra +/ Optra S printers, you can set binary mode by changing a printer device parameter in order
to accept binary data. Specifically, you can set the /Filtering parameter to /None. This means that
<CTRL+D> and other values will be passed to the PostScript interpreter as data instead of commands. The
device parameter resides in non-volatile RAM, so you only need to send the file once. The following are
samples of PostScript files that cause the printer to switch the port from ASCII to binary mode.
