Well, the subject says it all. We have a suspected memory error in our NT, does any one know of/have a program to test the memory of a postscript printer.

If you have a version of PS 38.0 or earlier you can manualy change memory, but in anycase, there is a memory test command. I seem to remember that R dump registers, G is Go, L=long, W=word B=byte (alter these), X= s1s9 download, H = haltpoints, Z or z = reset I think that A, M, m,o,q,t,s, S are various memory test routines. A in particular looks like it test memory, and if it finds a failure, prints the address, a R or W and a ? Try it. Can't hurt anything. Cheers Woody

I also would like to test memory, this time my home brew memory update to our qms800... any pointers to checking my work appr. gp wilkin -- George Wilkin AT&T Network Systems,(IH MAIN BL) 2000 N.
