Printer memory
The printer has three, dual in-line memory module (DIMM) slots.
Note
For maximum flexibility in DIMM support, the formatter is designed with three 168-pin DIMM
slots and a fourth 100-pin DIMM slot. Due to technical limitations, only three DIMMs can be
loaded at a time, so the fourth DIMM slot (100-pin) is logically the same as the third DIMM
slot (168-pin). The system can only have a DIMM installed on the third DIMM slot (168-pin)
provided that no DIMM is installed in the fourth DIMM slot (100-pin) and vice versa.
Use these DIMM slots to upgrade the printer with the following items:
● more printer memory - DIMMs are available in 64, 128, and 256 MB
● 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
● DIMM-based accessory fonts, macros, and patterns
● other DIMM-based printer languages and printer options
You might want to add more memory to the printer if you often print complex graphics or
PostScript documents, or if you use many downloaded fonts. Additional memory also allows
the printer to print multiple, collated copies at the maximum speed.
Note
Single in-line memory modules (SIMMs) used on previous HP LaserJet printers are not
compatible with the printer.
Note
To order DIMMs, see Supplies and accessories.
Before ordering additional memory, see how much memory is currently installed by printing a
