Files and Folders
You can save character data that you have created in files in the printer's internal memory. When you save a file, you have to assign it a file name; the purpose of the file name is to allow you to quickly identify the data that is stored in that file.
The printer also has three preset folders; when you save a file, you can save the file in one of these ten folders. In other words, a folder can be viewed as a container or holder of files. Naturally, multiple files can be stored in a folder*.
Although files can be deleted, folders cannot. Initially, the folders are named Folder 1 to Folder 10, but you can rename these folders as desired.
*One folder can hold up to 99 files, assuming each file contains approximately 60 characters.
Saving character data
Character data that has been created can be stored in files.
A total of approximately 60,000 characters of character data can be saved. For example, if you hae already saved a file containing 50 characters, an additional 59,950 characters can be saved.
