How to add a memory card
The system board has one connector for an optional memory card. The printer can support up to
128MB of additional memory (for a total of 144MB) for the Lexmark E234 and up to 128MB (for a
total of 160MB) for the Lexmark E234n.
CAUTION: If you are installing a memory card after setting up the printer, turn the printer off
and unplug the power cord before continuing.
Note: Memory options designed for other Lexmark printers may not work with your
printer.
1 Access the system board (see How to access the system board).
2 Push open the latches on both ends of the memory
connector.
3 Unpack the memory card.
Warning: Memory cards are easily damaged by static
electricity. Touch something metal, such as
the printer frame, before you touch a memory
card.
Avoid touching the connection points along the edge of the card.
4 Align the notches on the bottom of the card with
the notches on the connector.
5 Push the memory card firmly into the connector
until the latches on either end of the connector
snap into place.
It may require some force to fully seat the card.
6 Make sure each latch fits over the notch on each
end of the card.
7 Reattach the system board cover (see How to reattach the system board cover).
