LaserWriter II: 6MB Configuration Won‘t Cause Problems (11/94)


I've been told that a 6MB RAM configuration in a LaserWriter IIntx can cause problems.

The only documentation I've been able to locate states that the 6MB configuration can be physically installed, but that the printer will recognize only 5MB.

Will leaving excess memory in the otherwise empty slots cause any damage or problems with the printer or the attached systems?

As you have discovered, 1MB of the 6MB is not be recognized. We are not aware of any problems that could be caused by having 6MB installed in the printer.
