Introduction
This chapter discusses memory and storage options available for use with your QMS 4060 Printer.
Single In-Line Memory
Modules
Single in-line memory modules (or SIMMs) are compact circuit boards with surface-mount memory chips. The QMS 4060 Print System base model is standard with two 16 MB SIMMs. However, it is possible to add up to a total of 128 MB of RAM. The memory system on the printer uses interleaved memory mapping. Because of this, new SIMMs must be installed in matching pairs.
Additional printer memory allows you to download more fonts and increase the printer's buffer (area where data sent from the computer is stored while it’s waiting to be printed).
QMS requires that only QMS-certified service technicians install memory upgrades to your QMS 4060 Print System. See appendix A, “QMS Customer Support,” for information on how to contact QMS National Field Service.
Hard disks provide true virtual memory as well as storage for character bitmaps, downloaded outline fonts, and other files.

QMS 4060 Print System Options |
Hard Disk
Storage
Options
Your QMS 4060 Print System includes an internal IDE hard disk. This disk is used for storing system software, downloaded fonts, softloadable emulations, and spooling from the host computer.
For information on installing your external hard disk, see the documentation that comes with your hard disk.
»Note: See FAQ 7181 for a list of approved hard disks, their manufacturers and part numbers, and the QMS products on which they can be used. You can access QMS FAQs through the Internet at http://www.qms.com/support/supportbase/ or through Q-FAX. (See appendix A, “QMS Customer Support,” to find out how to access Q-FAX documents).
FAQ numbers are subject to change, so yo may want to obtain a directory of Q-FAX documents before requesting a specific document.
The hard disks are identified by their device numbers. The internal hard disk attached has a device number of DSK7. If optional external hard disks are attached to the printer, their device numbers can range from DSK0 to DSK6. (DSK5 which translates to SCSI ID 5 is reserved for the scanner). Device numbers of external disks can be set on the back of the hard disk by the installer.

Storage
Options
▲Caution: If you connect to this printer an external hard disk you previously used with an earlier QMS Crown printer (1660E, QMS 1725E, QMS 2025, or QMS 3225), this QMS 4060 Print System software release will automatically reorganize the files on the hard disk when the printer is turned back on again. (The printer release number is listed on both the start-up and the status page.) Once this reorganization is done, the files on the hard disk can no longer be accessed if the hard disk is reattached to an earlier QMS Crown printer.
This reorganization process takes time. If, when you first turn the printer on after attaching a previously used hard disk, it does not come on line immediately, be patient. Interrupting the reorganization process could cause all files on the hard disk to be lost.
For the printer to recognize one or more external hard disks, each hard disk must be turned on before you turn on the printer. If the printer recognizes the disk(s) and the start-up page is enabled, check to ensure that DISK ONLINE prints on that page. If the start-up page is not enabled, print a status page and check to see if DISK ONLINE prints on that page. (See chapter 4, “Printer Configuration,” of the Reference manual, for information on how to print a status page.)
If DISK ONLINE does not print, see the Operation guide, chapter 9, the “Internal Hard Disk Problems” section, for more information.
Properly installed disks will also appear in the “Options” section, of the start-up page (if it’s enabled) and on the status page as %%diskx% (where x is a 7 for an internal IDE hard disk and 0 - 6 (SCSI ID 5 is reserved for the scanner) for any external SCSI hard disks, depending on the SCSI ID set on the back of the hard disk.

Options
To configure the hard disk(s) you may need to either Enable Disk Swap or increase the Disk Cache size, dependent on your printer’s memory.
After the Administration/Memory/Enable Disk Swap or Administration/ Memory/Disk Cache menu settings are reconfigured and the printer is restarted, you need to print a status page to check that the Disk Cache size is increased. (Notice that VM remaining memory is also increased.)
The Administration/Disk Operations menu contains all of the options you need to format a hard disk.
The following two messages may appear while you are using the Disk Operations menu.

Optional Fonts
The following types of optional fonts are available for the QMS 4060 Print System:
nA disk containing typefaces (fonts) such as the ProCollection for the HP emulations on your printer or other special fonts.
nA Kanji Option Kit that contains the Kanji SIMM.
nA SIMM containing 65 ProCollection fonts for the HP emulation on your printer.
Optional typefaces (fonts), such as the ProCollection for the HP emulations on your printer and other special PostScript fonts, are available as PostScript files on floppy disks for your PC. See your QMS vendor for the available optional fonts. This section describes how to download an optional font from the floppy disk to the printer’s hard disk.
»Note: At least one optional hard disk (internal or external) must be installed on the printer before you can download a font. If more than one hard disk is available, the font automatically installs itself on the disk with the most free storage space.
Once a font is downloaded, the only way to remove it is to reformat the hard disk (Administration/Disk Operations/Format Disk menu ).
This procedure contains the instructions for downloading the fonts from a floppy disk onto your hard disk.
1If necessary connect the PC to the printer’s parallel or serial port.
2Turn on the printer, and wait for IDLE to appear in the message window.

For your Macintosh system, you will need to install the bitmapped screen fonts and Kanji APD and PPD files. The bitmapped screen fonts display an image of how a printed typeface looks, and they also provide metrics information used by the application to determine which outline font to used when formatting text.
Optional Fonts |
2-5 |
Kanji SIMM Kit
Install the bitmapped screen fonts from the floppy disk to your Macintosh as follows:
»Note: Make sure that the bitmapped screen fonts disk is copied only to the KanjiTalk System Folder. If bitmapped fonts are installed in another folder, they will not appear in your application.
1Insert the bitmapped screen fonts disk into the Macintosh computer’s disk drive.
2If you are using System 6, install the fonts using normal Macintosh procedures for Font/DA Mover.
If you are using System 7 or System 8, select the fonts from the floppy disk and drag the fonts to the Fonts folder in the System folder.
3Restart your Macintosh.
Most Macintosh applications obtain font information from the printer. But applications such as Adobe Separator, QuarkXPress, and Aldus PageMaker, refer to the font list of the PPD file for font information.
1Replace the APD and PPD files you installed when you purchased your QMS printer.
Follow the instructions in your application documentation or in your printer user’s guide “Printer Description Files” section.
When downloading Adobe Type Library or Morisawa Type Library Kanji fonts, you need to also download the JFontPrep file.
1Access the Administration/Emulation/PostScript/Emulation Level and select Level 2.
See chapter 4, “Printer Configuration,” in the Reference manual for detailed printer configuration information.
2Open PS Exec on your computer.

3From the File menu, choose Download PS File.
4Choose JFontPrep, click Send, and then download to the printer.
»Note: The JFontPrep PostScript file is automatically downloaded to RAM. The Japanese PostScript fonts are downloaded to disk.
5When the Status window is gone, close PS Exec.
6Download the font(s). See the Adobe Type Library User’s Guide for instructions on downloading fonts.
▲Caution: Do not select Clear Font Cache in the Disk menu even though the Adobe/Morisawa Type Library User’s Guide states that you should select this option, it could cause your printer to lock up.
7After downloading the fonts, if necessary, reset Emulation Level to its initial value.

Network
Interface
In addition to the two standard interfaces (CrownNet for Ethernet and Centronics/IEEE 1284 parallel) your printer supports optional interfaces such as DECnet-TCP/IP, IBM 3270/5250A, and Token-Ring. Additional interface options allow greater flexibility when working in a complex network environment.
»Note: The LocalTalk network or single Macintosh interface information is contained in the “Using the Optional LocalTalk Interface” section, and the serial interface information is contained in the “Optional Serial Interface” on page 3-16, later in this chapter.
An optional network interface may be installed in the optional interface opening on the back of the printer. This opening is to the left of the other interface ports and it is covered with a rectangular metal plate.
The printer’s simultaneous interface operation (SIO) allows the optional interfaces to be active at the same time as the other ports. In other words, your printer can communicate through up to five ports with five host computers or computer networks. One host can interface through the parallel port, one through the optional serial port, one through the Ethernet port, and one through the optional interface port. See your QMS vendor for a list of available optional network interfaces available.
The optional network interface assembly kit includes the following:
nA network interface card (NIC)
nNetwork interface documentation
The kit may also include additional parts not required for network interface installation on this printer.

Using an Optional Network
Interface
Once an optional network interface is installed, refer to the following for more information:
nChapter 4, “Connecting to an Ethernet Network,” in the Getting Started manual provides information on connecting to the network, installing the software, and configuring the interface and the network. Chapter 2, “Printer Configuration,” of QMS CrownNet Interface System Administrator’s Guide (on the QMS Software Utilities CD-ROM), provides information on setting the Ethernet interface parameters. Chapter 5,“Additional Technical Information,” of the Reference manual contains a full discussion of the PS Protocol option that appears in the Administration/Communications/CrownNet menu.
nThe documentation provided with the optional network interface contains information about all other options in the new network interface menu as well as instructions for connecting the printer to the network and for printing over the network.
nYour application and network documentation contain information on printing over the network.
If you install an optional network interface such as Ethernet or TokenRing, the appropriate interface and its options will be listed in the Administration/Communications/CrownNet menu. The documentation
