Memory Module
By installing a 1MB, 2MB, or 4MB Single In-Line Memory Module
(SIMM), you can increase printer memory up to 5MB. You may want to
add additional memory if you are having difficulty printing complex,
graphics-intensive pages or if you regularly use many downloaded fonts.
You can purchase SIMMs from various vendors. Be sure the SIMMs you
purchase meet the following requirements:
72-pin type
Capacity of 1,2, or 4MB
Access speed of 70ns or less
Installing the SIMM
Warning:
High voltages are present inside the printer when the power is on. Do not
attempt to install a SIMM unless the printer is turned off.
1.
Turn off the printer and unplug the power cable from the electrical
outlet.
2.
Turn the printer so the back of the printer is facing you.
3.
Remove the metal access cover located above the parallel connector.
4.
Mount the SIMM in the slot provided for it.
5.
Replace the metal access cover.
6.
Reattach the power cord.
7.
Switch on the printer's power.
8.
Now you need to update the printer driver's Memory setting. Bring
up a software program that you often use to print.
