Printer Specifications
RAM and Printer Capabilities
The Phaser 5400 Laser Printer is equipped with 32 Mbytes of RAM and is expandable
as shown below. Installing additional RAM:
■
Improves system performance.
■
Improves processing of complex jobs.
■
Enables increased graphics at higher resolutions.
■
Improves collation printing.
Memory Expansion
The base printer contains 32 MB of DRAM installed as a standard. Three option slots
are provided on the System Controller Board to accommodate DIMMs per the
Memory Expansion Options table below. The maximum DRAM memory, both
on-board and added via DIMMs is 192 MB. Memory added beyond this limit is
ignored.
Additional memory provides the following enhanced printer capabilities:
■
Additional font cache
■
Additional download space for fonts, macros and images
■
Increased throughput for complex pages, duplex pages and larger paper sizes
(A3 / Ledger)
■
Increased PostScript VM (virtual memory)
■
Collated sets without the Hard Disk Drive
Note: The printer features three DIMM slots (J4, J5 and J6) for
memory expansion. DRAM DIMMs can be installed in any of
these slots. Refer to the instructions packed with the DIMMs.
You can increase the resident fonts of the printer or create resident macros by
installing a Flash DIMM or hard drive and downloading resources permanently to this
memory. If flash memory is to be used, the 8 MB Flash DIMM can be installed in any
slot (J4, J5 or J6). If a bootable flash DIMM is installed, it must be in J6 slot;
however, this is not a standard option and is not likely to be seen unless a custom
version of the printer were produced.
