Multiple Resolutions
If you purchased a printer with 12 MB RAM, you can print color
or monochrome documents in 300 dpi or monochrome documents
in 600 dpi. You can print color and monochrome documents in 600
dpi if you install additional RAM in the printer. The magicolor LX

Specifications,” for specific information on RAM requirements
and color resolution.
Software Loadable System (SLS)
Your printer has a software loadable system, SLS, which allows
you to replace or upgrade its system software from a host. Future
enhancements to the system software can be easily installed as they
become available from QMS.
