Kodak Printe - Manual (Page 31)

Installing additional memory A
The VinylJet 36 ships with 32 MB of DRAM, upgradable to a maximum of 128 MB, 64
MB per socket. Additional memory helps to free the host computer more quickly.
Acceptable SIMM sizes
Printer memory may be upgraded by installing 72-pin 60 nanosecond (or faster) SIMMs
that are either 32 or 36 bits wide. (The printer does not use parity bits.) The SIMMs must
not exceed a height of 2 inches (5 cm) and must conform to JEDEC Std. 21-C, release 4.
The printer will accept 4 MB, 8 MB, 16 MB, 32 MB or 64 MB SIMMs. Recommended
SIMMs are ENCAD P/N 210610 (32MB SIMM).
SIMM installation
The SIMMs are located on the MPCB inside the right cover. The MPCB comes with
one SIMM slot empty and a 32 MB RAM SIMM installed on the board. The following
procedures describe how to remove the right cover, remove any currently installed
SIMM(s), install new SIMM(s) and replace the cover. You will need a #2 Phillips screw-
driver to complete the procedures.
! ALWAYS UNPLUG THE POWER CORD BEFORE BEGINNING.
! To avoid static damage to the printer, never touch the circuit board or its components
without first touching the bright metal portions of the printer. Static damage is more likely
when the relative humidity is low. If possible, wear a grounding strap when touching the
circuit board.
