Expanding the Printer Memory

This section explains how to expand the printer’s memory. Expanded printer memory enables you to print more complex pages, download more fonts, and define more macros.

This section first explains how to remove the main circuit board and then how to install a DIMM (Dual In-line Memory Module) on the main circuit board.

The FS-3830N comes supplied with 96 MB of memory installed, while the FS-3820N comes with 64 MB of memory. Two sockets are provided on the FS-3830N and one socket on the FS-3820N for expanding that memory.

Expanding the printer’s memory allows more complex printing jobs to be accomplished and increases the printing speed. By installing DIMM into your printer, the memory of the FS-3830N can be increased to a maximum of 576 MB and that of the FS-3820N to a maximum of 320 MB.
