This printer combines the quality and reliability of Hewlett-Packard printers with the features listed in Table 1-1 below. For more information on printer features, refer to the Hewlett-Packard website at http://www.hp.com. Table 1-1 Printer features Feature Description Connectivity G Bidirectional parallel port (requires a “C” connector) G Two enhanced input/output (EIO) slots G Optional HP JetDirect 600N print server (network card) (included with the HP Color LaserJet 4500 N and 4500 DN printers) Duplex G Optional duplex unit; mounts directly beneath the printer for two-sided printing (duplex unit is standard with the HP Color LaserJet 4500 DN) G Requires 40 MB of memory.
64 MB of memory is recommended for optimal duplex printing. Note: If the 500-sheet paper feeder (Tray 3) is installed, the duplex unit must be positioned between the printer and Tray 3. Environmental G PowerSave setting (meets E NERGY S TAR guidelines) G High content of recyclable components and materials Fonts G 80 internal fonts G HP FontSmart software Memory—standard G 32 MB RAM (Base) G 64 MB RAM (HP Color LaserJet 4500 N/4500 DN) G Memory Enhancement Technology (MEt), which automatically compresses data to use RAM more efficiently Memory—optional G Install 4, 8, 16, 32, or 64 MB DIMMs into the printer’s three DIMM slots.
Synchronous SDRAM modules do not need to be configured in pairs (in corresponding left and right slots). The printer will only recognize 208 MB of RAM. If you install more than 208 MB of RAM, it will not be used by the printer. CAUTION: The HP Color LaserJet printer uses 100-pin, non-parity, synchronous SDRAM DIMMs. Extended Data Output (EDO) DIMMs are not supported. Chapter 1 Printer description 3
