ABSTRACT:
A method and system of utilizing a memory array device contained within an integrated circuit within the printer device is provided in which data bits are written in a row format, thereby filling an N.times.M memory array device and then read in a column format. An N.times.M memory array device is employed such as a 32.times.32 bit memory array. During the reading phase, data from a computer is read by the memory device in a parallel fashion so that data is written sequentially a row of memory cells, such as B0W0, B1W0, B2W0 . . . etc. Once the memory array is loaded up, the writing phase is accomplished by performing a parallel dump wherein all of the memory cells of the first column are read together such that a column of memory cells, such as B0W0 to B0W31 is read first, a column of memory cells, such as B1W0 to B1W31 is read second, a column of memory cells B2W0 to B2W31 is read third etc. The N.times.M memory array device is read in a column format instead of the standard row format. As is evident, one or more arrays may be utilized.
