Printer Memory Requirements
Memory requirements vary depending on the print resolution, media
size, and duplexing mode. Negative image and NEIT printing require
full image buffering.
The following chart lists the minimum available memory required to
print typical configurations. Available memory is equal to the total
RAM installed minus the amount of RAM Disk enabled (see chapter
8 for details). Complex files, large files or those with heavy graphics
may require more than the standard memory to print.
