Printer Options
The following options are available for your QMS 1660 Print System.
Contact your QMS vendor for purchase information.
Upgradable RAM (Random Access Memory)
The QMS 1660 Print System comes in two configurations:
n
12 MB of RAM
n
24 MB of RAM
However, you can upgrade this RAM to 64 MB through the installation
of SIMMs (single in-line memory modules). Additional RAM allows
you to print at higher resolutions on certain media sizes, download
and cache fonts, and attach and use multiple hard disks. Additional
RAM also increases the printer's buffer (the area where data sent
from the host computer is stored), allowing you to send large data-
intensive files to the printer without tying up the host for long periods.

Note: SIMM specifications are included in Q-FAX document 6502,
"QMS-tested SIMMs and Hard Disks." This document contains a
description of each approved SIMM, its manufacturers and part
numbers, and the QMS products on which it's used. See appendix A,
"QMS Customer Support," of this manual to find out how to access Q-
FAX documents.
User Benefit—Your printer's memory can be upgraded as your
needs grow.
Note: Printing at 600x600 and 1200x600 dpi resolution on certain
»
media sizes requires additional memory. See the "High-Resolution
Printing" section in chapter 3, "Advanced Printing Features," of the
Operation manual for details.
250-Sheet and 500-Sheet Paper Cassettes
This option increases the printer's paper feed capacity. While your
printer comes standard with two 250-sheet paper cassettes (letter/A4
and 11" x 17"/A3), you can install only one paper cassette at a time in
the printer. However, an optional paper feeder allows you to install
dual paper cassettes, increasing paper feed capacity to 600 sheets
