The laser system comes standard equipped with an intelligent memory buffer that has
built-in file compression. The ULS Printer Driver actually compresses the file while it
downloads to the laser system and the laser system decompresses the file while it runs.
The amount of compression can be as little as 4 to 1 or as great as 64 to 1. This means
that with 4 MB of RAM in the laser system, the buffer could hold the equivalent of
256MB worth of files provided they can be compressed 64 to 1. This gives the laser
system the ability to store either larger or more jobs in the buffer. It also provides for
quicker downloading because the files are much smaller than normal. The buffer can
hold up to 999 files providing that the buffer space is not exceeded. The buffer also has
built in file handling intelligence enabling each individual job in the buffer to be run in
any order. The jobs are stored sequentially based on the order in which they were
transferred from the computer and each one is assigned a number to help for tracking.
A running total of the free space left in the buffer is provided at the bottom of the
display.
The file name displayed is always the currently active job and there are two methods for
looking through the list of jobs and choosing another job. The first method is to press
the “NEXT JOB” button on the control panel. Each time the “NEXT JOB” button is
pressed, the next job in the buffer becomes the current job. The second method is to
point the screen cursor at the job name and press the “SELECT” button which will move
