The advantages of more memory are pretty much as you state, but keep in mind that the overall page per minute rating of the printer does not change. The speed advantage you will see is in the time between when you click print and printing physically starts happening. You will also be able to print more complex documents.
Having said all that, do not expect that you will suddenly have a rocket ship, the actual processor on this old printer is slow even compared to some of the least expensive laser printers now available and printers considered a direct replacement often have 512Mb or a Gigabyte of memory installed.
If you can find some cheap memory, go for it, it can only help.
If you find the information provided useful or solves your problems, help other users find the solution easier by marking my post as an accepted solution. Clicking "yes" on "was this reply helpful" also increases the chances that this solution will help others.
