The printer comes equipped with 512 MB of memory. This can be expanded to a maximum of 1.5 GB.

The removed screws will be used to secure the controller board again later.
Holding the handle, carefully pull out the controller board.
Slide the controller board completely out and place it on a flat surface such as a table.
Install the SDRAM module in the indicated position.
There are two SDRAM slots. A 512 MB SDRAM module is installed in the outer slot. When installing an expansion SDRAM module, install the module in the free, inner slot.

For instructions about installing the hard disk, see Installing the hard disk.
Fit the controller board into the printer, and push it carefully in until it stops.
Push it firmly into the printer using the handle. The printer may malfunction if the controller board is not properly installed.
Fasten the controller board to the printer using the screws.
