That's not a command. At a guess it's a comment. PostScript comments
start with a % and run to the end of the line.

The line matches something you'd expect to see in the PPD. The print
processor might use this information to decide how to manage memory in
a print job. There are strategies that reduce memory consumption,
which will produce a larger print file.
