Chapter 11: Memory and Option Cards
Understanding
Memory Options
Because the steps required to install a printer memory
option and a flash memory option card are the same, they
are grouped together in this section. Details about the two
option cards follow.
Printer Memory
The printer memory option increases the printer sync
dynamic random access memory (SDRAM). Additional
printer memory allows the printer to print complex jobs
and operate more efficiently.
Warning! Data stored in printer
memory is lost when the printer
is unplugged.
Your printer has 4MB of standard printer memory. You
can purchase printer memory cards having 4MB, 8MB,
16MB, 32MB, and 64MB of memory. You can install up to
two optional printer memory cards in your printer, for a
total of up to 132MB of SDRAM.
Flash Memory
The flash memory option is useful for storing information
such as downloaded fonts, macros, symbol sets, logos,

memory is retained when the

option, which provides memory storage similar to the
flash memory option.
