Printer memory
The printer has five dual in-line memory module (DIMM) slots.
Note For maximum flexibility in DIMM support, the formatter is designed with
four 168-pin DIMM slots and a fifth 100-pin DIMM slot. Due to technical
limitations, only four DIMMs can be loaded at a time, so the fifth DIMM
slot (100-pin) is logically the same as the fourth DIMM slot (168-pin).
The system can only have a DIMM installed on the fourth DIMM slot
(168-pin) provided that no DIMM is installed in the fifth DIMM slot (100-
pin) and vice versa.
Use these DIMM slots to upgrade the printer with:
z more printer memory - DIMMs are available in 64, 128, and
256 MB
z flash memory DIMMs - available in 4 MB; unlike standard printer
memory, flash DIMMs can be used to permanently store
downloaded items in the printer, even when the printer is off
z DIMM-based accessory fonts, macros, and patterns
z other DIMM-based printer languages and printer options
You may want to add more memory to the printer if you often print
complex graphics or PS documents, or use many downloaded fonts.
Additional memory also allows the printer to print multiple, collated
copies at the maximum speed.
