Checking memory installation

Follow this procedure to verify that DDR DIMMs and flash memory cards are installed correctly:

1Check that the MFP control panel displays READY when the MFP is turned on. If an error message appears, a DIMM or flash memory card might have been incorrectly installed.

2Print the configuration page.

3Check the memory section on the configuration page and compare it to the configuration before the DIMM installation. If the amount of memory has not increased, one of the following situations might have occurred:

The DIMM might not be installed correctly. Repeat the installation procedure.

The DIMM might be defective. Try a new DIMM, or try installing the DIMM in a different slot.

Note

If you installed a printer language (personality), check the Installed Personalities and Options

 

section on the configuration page. This area should list the new printer language.

 

 

Saving resources (permanent resources)

Utilities or jobs that you downloaded to the MFP sometimes include resources (for example, fonts, macros, or patterns). Resources that are internally marked as permanent remain in the MFP memory until you turn the MFP off.

If you do not have a flash DIMM for storing downloaded resources, you might want to change the amount of memory allocated to each language when downloading an unusually large number of fonts, or if the MFP is in a shared environment.

The minimum amount of memory that can be allocated to resource saving is 400 KB each for PCL and PS.
