Memory clients are users of memory that are dedicated to a specific purpose. Each of
the memory clients is located in the Administration/Memory menu. When you allocate
memory to a specific client through the control panel, it’s allocated in kilobytes (KB).
Each time you make changes in the Administration/Memory menu, print out a status
page to confirm the memory reallocation.
»Note:
The value for each memory client must be divisible by 4 KB. Therefore, if a
value is entered that is not evenly divisible by 4 KB, it’s automatically converted to the
next lower value that’s divisible by 4 KB. For example, if you enter 102 KB, the actual
value is lowered to 100 KB, assuming there is enough memory available to allocate to
this client. See the “Memory” section of chapter 2, “Printer Configuration,” for each
memory client’s minimum and default settings.
Memory clients in the QMS 3260/4032 are automatically allocated when the printer is
installed or when you upgrade the printer’s memory. There are other occasions when
the printer’s memory is automatically reallocated. These occur:
When new system software is installed.
When Quick Config is selected in the menu.
When Disk Swap is enabled or disabled.
When Frame Buffer is manually adjusted.
When restoring printer defaults.
Remember, if you perform any of these functions the memory clients will be set to
default values. The default values depend on the amount of physical memory installed
in your printer and if you have a hard disk. The default allocation adjusts the Frame
Buffer memory client first. It is set to the minimum values of physical memory needed
for your print jobs, that is, paper size and resolution. The other memory clients are allo-
cated memory from what is left over in physical memory.

The Frame Buffer memory client holds rasterized or bitmapped images of page faces
which are ready to be sent to the print engine. A frame holds the contents of each
single page image. For example, a 600 dpi monochrome page printed on letter-size
media would consume Frame Buffer memory space as follows: (600 dpi x 600 dpi x
8.5 in x 11 in) /8 = 4,207,500 bytes or 4.1 MB.
