You may also need additional memory (SIMMs) for the following:
To print complex graphics or complex PostScript documents
For increased collation performance
For increased spooling performance

300 dpi—300x300 dpi resolution
Choices
600 dpi—600x600 dpi resolution
1200 dpi—1200x600 dpi resolution
2400 dpi—2400x600 dpi resolution
Default
600 dpi, 1200 dpi, or 2400 dpi—your printer's default is the highest
resolution available for the amount of RAM installed in the printer (see
"Minimum System Memory Requirements—Simplex Only CXE, GXE,
EXD" on page 4-3 and "Minimum System Memory Requirements—Duplex
EXD" on page 4-3 for more information).
Notes
Whenever possible, set the print resolution through your application. If the
print resolution can't be set through the application, you can set it through
the configuration menu, the printer driver, or QMS Document Option
Commands (DOCs).
If you want the printer to use a lower default resolution when you restore
defaults, set this option to your choice (and make any other necessary
configuration settings), and then use the Administration/Miscellaneous/
Save Defaults menu to save your custom defaults. See "Working with
Custom Configurations" in chapter 4, "Printer Configuration," of the
Reference manual for more information.
In addition, after you lower the default resolution, you should reconfigure
the printer memory (Administration/Memory/Quick Config menu) to
distribute it better for that particular resolution. For example, if you set the
default resolution to 600 dpi when your printer has enough memory to
print at 2400 dpi, the frame buffer remains configured for 2400 dpi, which
means that printer memory that could be better used somewhere else is
being wasted.
