Printer memory

The printer has two dual inline memory module (DIMM) slots for upgrading with:

More printer memory. DIMMs are available in 32, 64, and 128 MB for a maximum of 320 MB.

DIMM-based accessory fonts, macros, and patterns.

You might 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.

Before ordering additional memory, see how much is currently installed by printing a

Configuration page. [Press (GO) and (CANCEL JOB) simultaneously, or use the embedded Web server.] To order DIMMs, see “Accessories and ordering information” on page 24. Single inline memory modules (SIMMs) used on previous HP LaserJet printers are not compatible with the printer.
