How To / Installing Options

Memory Module

Your printer is provided with 16MB of standard memory. You can increase printer memory up to 144MB by installing optional DIMM (Dual In-line Memory Module). Increasing the printer's memory allows you to print complex or graphics-intensive documents.

To install DIMM, see the following section or the Setup Sheet.

Before purchasing make sure that the DIMM you choose is compatible with EPSON products. For more details, contact your dealer or EPSON sales company.

Follow these steps to install an optional memory module.

Warning:

Be careful when working inside the printer as some components are sharp and may cause injury.

Turn the printer off and unplug the power cord.
