Color Laserjet Pro m452dw
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I just purchased the Color Laserjet Pro m452dw and while researching, prior to the purchase, I recall reading that there was a DIMM slot available in the printer that would enable me to expand the memory by an additional 256mb. I can't find any information on how to accomplish this, nor the specifications of the DIMM.

 

I sincerely appreciate someone guiding in the right direction. Thank you.

No upgrade available. Comes with 256 meg which is the max.

 

Memory Standard: 256 MB NAND Flash, 256 MB DRAM; Maximum: 256MB NAND Flash, 256MB DRAM

My printer is a HP Color LaserJet M452nw. According to the Configuration Report, my printer only has 128 MB of memory (of which 55 MB is available).

 

Should my printer have come with 256 MB?

 

(The reason I'm asking is that I get a memory low message when printing even modest scanned images.)

My printing problems has been resolved; I was (apparently) using the wrong driver.

 

But the question about the amount of memory still stands. 🙂

HP Recommended

Not true.  Many printers only came with 128.

Spec sheets state that unit ships with 256Mb of dram. There is no upgrade slot on the M452. The previous model M451 has a memory slot for additional memory.

I have (20) M452nw printers installed with 128 MBytes total memory (55.60 MBytes available memory).  Obviously, the spec sheet is incorrect.
