Installing memory modules

Note

CAUTION

If you often print complex graphics or PostScript® (PS) documents, or if you print with the auto-duplex unit, you might want to add more memory to the printer.

Adding memory gives the printer the ability to process these more complex print jobs, but might not increase processing speed.

The printer contains 96 MB of built-in memory and has two DIMM slots that accept 64 MB, 128 MB, or 256 MB of RAM (see Accessories for ordering information.) You can find out how much memory is installed from the printer configuration page. Note that the printer only recognizes up to 544 MB of printer memory. As such, if you have installed two 256 MB RAM, the total printer usable memory is only 544 MB.

The DIMMs contain electronic components that can be damaged by static electricity.

To prevent the buildup of static electricity, maintain frequent contact with any bare sheet metal surface on the printer. If possible, wear a grounding wrist strap (or similar device). Handle the DIMMs carefully at all times. Avoid touching electronic components or circuit paths. Failure to follow these recommendations could result in damage to the parts.

To install a DIMM

1Print the printer configuration page to find out how much memory is available in the printer. See Understanding and printing the configuration page.

2Turn off the printer, and disconnect the power cord and any other cables.

3On the left side of the printer, remove the side cover.

4On an empty DIMM slot, push the DIMM locks outward to release the locks.

5Remove the DIMM from the antistatic package.
