The faster the processor, and the more RAM you have, the faster you can print on your BJ-200ex Bubble Jet Printer. Page Printers and Processing With page printers, the computer and the printer share the processing load. The computer translates information from the application into the appropriate page description language and sends this to the printer. The printer processes this code into the specific printing instructions on where to put each dot on the page. This means that the printer itself must have a certain amount of processing power and memory to handle the instructions it receives from the computer. Because processing takes place on both the computer and the printer, the speed of laser printing depends on the processor speed and RAM available on both the computer and the printer. Congratulations You are now ready to start using your new printer. See Chapter 3, Using the Printer, for instructions on how to perform various printing operations.
