You can use an AT-Attachment (ATA) memory card with the appropriate device drivers to add memory to the printer. The card goes in the printer’s PC-card slot. The application treats the memory card as another disk drive.

Memory cards are flash-based. They have a built-in processor to track bad locations and maximize flash life (ensuring no location is overused).

Available memory cards come in 4, 8, 20, and 40 MB sizes.
