Installing memory
CAUTION
Static electricity can damage dual in-
line memory modules (DIMMs). When
handling DIMMs, either wear an
antistatic wrist strap or frequently touch
the surface of the DIMM’s antistatic
package, then touch bare metal on the
printer.
If you have not already done so, print a
configuration page to find out how much
memory is installed in the printer before
adding more memory (see
“Configuration page” on page 152).
