Overview
The printer has three dual in-line memory module (DIMM) slots
for upgrading with:
●
more printer memory—DIMMs are available in 4, 8, 16, 32,
64, and 128 MB, for a maximum of 256 MB
●
flash memory DIMMs—available in 2 and 4 MB; unlike
standard printer memory, flash DIMMs can be used to
permanently store downloaded items in the printer, even
when the printer is off
●
DIMM-based accessory fonts, macros, and patterns
●
other DIMM-based printer languages and printer options
Note
Single in-line memory modules (SIMMs) used on previous HP LaserJet
printers are not compatible with the printer.
You might want to add more memory to the printer if you often
print complex graphics or PS documents, print with the optional
duplexer, use many downloaded fonts, or print at ProRes 1200.
Added memory also gives you more flexibility in supporting job
retention features, such as quick copying.
The printer has two enhanced input/output (EIO) slots for
expanding the printer’s capabilities with:
●
a network card
●
a connectivity card for serial, USB, or AppleTalk
●
a mass storage device, such as a hard disk
For ordering information, see “Ordering information” on page 22.
To find out how much memory is installed in the printer, or to find
out what is installed in the EIO slots, print a configuration page
(see “Configuration page” on page 152).
