Adding Memory (Simm) - NEC 4400 - SuperScript Color Laser Printer User Manual

DDING EMORY
The SuperScript 4400 and 4400N have four Single Inline
Memory Module (SIMM) slots. The 4400 comes with 32MB
RAM. The 4400N comes with 96MB RAM. However, you can
upgrade either model to a maximum of 128MB of RAM
through the installation of additional SIMMs.
note:
You may need additional memory to print on legal
size paper or at higher resolutions. See the following
table.
See your local computer reseller to purchase expansion
SIMMs.Use 72 pin, 60ns high-quality SIMMs. You can use
both parity and non-parity DRAM SIMMs.
Adding additional memory will help ensure that your printer
has enough memory to print the most complex graphic print
jobs without sacrificing resolution. Added memory will also
increase print speed.
If you install the optional SuperScript 4400 NIC, you should
also upgrade your memory from 32MB to 96MB. The easiest
way to do this is to first remove the two 16MB SIMMs that
came with your printer. Then install two 32MB SIMMs in the
first two memory sockets. Reinstall the first two 16MB
SIMMs (that you removed) under these. Your printer now
has 96MB of RAM.
Remove SIMMs from the bottom memory sockets first. Install
SIMMs to the top memory sockets first.
The instructions that follow explain how to install memory in
your printer yourself. You can also contact an NEC-
authorized dealer and have more memory installed for a
service fee. Call 800-632-4650.

memory. See page 40 about Device Options.
