The SuperScript 1800 printer comes with 12MB
of memory, and can be upgraded to 132MB using 60ns, or faster, 72-pin EDO DRAM SIMMs. The printer has a
Controller Board with two SIMM slots for memory. The SIMM slots can be upgraded with 8MB,
16MB, 32MB, and 64MB SIMMs. If both slots are going to contain SIMMs, they must be of the
same size. The 12MB of memory that comes with your printer is in the form of 4MB
built into the controller board and 8MB installed in the SIMM slots.
