Introduction
Memory management
Your printer has a standard memory of 512KB expandable to 2.5MB
with the purchase of the optional 2MB memory board. An
additional 2MB can be added to the optional memory board for a
total memory of 4.5 MB.
If you wish to print full-page, 300 dot-per-inch graphics or perform
other sophisticated print jobs (such as complex pages using a variety
of fonts), it is recommended that you install the optional 2MB
memory board.
Laser printer precautions
Certain precautions are necessary to ensure the safe and efficient
operation of a laser printer. The following list of precautions applies
whenever you open the printer cover. Even if you are familiar with
other types of printers, be sure to follow these precautions carefully.
Be careful not to touch the fuser, which has a hot surface. (The
fuser is the orange-colored area on the left side of the printer,
inside the cover.) There is a label on the fuser warning you not
to touch the hot surface.
Protect the light-sensitive drum from exposure to light. You
should avoid exposing the drum unit to room light for any
longer than necessary. Never expose the drum to lighting any
stronger than room light. Overexposing the drum may cause
abnormally dark or light areas to appear on the printed page,
reducing the service life of the drum.
If you must expose the drum, either by taking the drum unit out
of the printer or by leaving the printer cover open, cover the
drum with a soft cloth or sheet of paper.
