Lexmark Confidential until announced Overview 4 Flash memory and hard disk support PRESCRIBE downloaded fonts (LDFC) and PRESCRIBE macros can be stored on either the flash memory or the printer hard disk. Programming is done using the Resource Save setting. Note: The ICCD and WRED commands are not supported. Memorex printer compatibility mode The PRESCRIBE emulation option includes a custom extension to support an alternate font number table which is compatible with Memorex system printers. The font number mapping is as follows: Memorex font number Standard PRESCRIBE font number 1 1 2 6 3 10 4 15 5 2 6 17 7 23 8 29 9 34 10 19 The font number is the parameter used with the FONT command. This font number mapping is invoked by the Memorex Express start sequence, (O&, instead of !R!. Print jobs that use the Memorex Express start sequence can often be automatically sensed as PostScript® emulation. To prevent these print jobs from being processed as PostScript emulation, they must be wrapped with a PJL ENTER LANGUAGE sequence into PCL® emulation. Or the PostScript SmartSwitch must be turned off for the respective input port. The following is an example of how to wrap the print job with PJL:

Flash memory and hard disk support
PRESCRIBE downloaded fonts (LDFC) and PRESCRIBE macros can be stored on either the flash memory or the
printer hard disk. Programming is done using the Resource Save setting.
Note:
The ICCD and WRED commands are not supported.
Memorex printer compatibility mode
The PRESCRIBE emulation option includes a custom extension to support an alternate font number table which
is compatible with Memorex system printers. The font number mapping is as follows:
