Documentation

Definition

If you set this attribute for a graphic to be printed during upload, the graphic is defined as a macro and stored in the printer memory when it occurs for the first time during printout. This allows the system to retrieve the graphic from the printer memory if it occurs a second time within the same print request. This considerably reduces the size of the print files created by the R/3 System.

However, the size of the printer memory is limited: Only a small number of graphics (recommended number: one to three) within one print request should be buffered in the printer memory. If the printer memory is used up, graphics cannot be buffered there and will be missing in the printout.

You should set this attribute only for recurring graphics in a print request (for example, a company logo).
