Memory Considerations
Memory
Considerations
In today’s printing environments, technologies have
advanced greatly but so have their corresponding memory
requirements. To make use of specialized graphics features,
fonts, and other applications on the market today, you may
find it necessary to increase memory size.
From the factory, the 4505 and 4510 are equipped with 2 MB
of resident base memory. The 4505ps and 4510ps are
equipped with 2 MB of resident base memory plus one 4 MB
SIMM (single in-line memory module) for a total of 6 MB.
Maximum memory capacity is 16 MB.
• When is more memory needed?
— You receive out-of-memory error messages when
printing.
See
Chapter 3: Using the Control Panel,“Printer
Settings that Affect Memory” (page 3-67)
information on how certain printer settings may affect
memory usage and performance. See also
Memory Requirements” (page 3-69)

— You determine that expanded capability for
additional fonts, more complex documents, graphics,
or higher resolution is needed.

memory usage.
• How is more memory added?
— Install a SIMM (single in-line memory module).
SIMMs are small circuit boards with memory chips
that can be installed on the printer controller board.
See
Chapter 5: Adding Printer Options
information on SIMM installation.
