for each printer. Make sure not to change the position of the memory
cartridge switch until all printers have been upgraded.
The cartridge can be used as a normal memory expansion cartridge after

insert the cartridge in a printer, and switch on the printer. The memory
cartridge will then be formatted automatically.
Note: If the switch is not moved back to normal position, its content will
be erased when trying to write to the cartridge.
