							Envelope Feeder Installation
For complete information about installing the Envelope Feeder,
see Envelope Feeder User’s Guide . This guide is provided with the
envelope feeder. The instructions below are not intended to
replace the information of the  Envelope Feeder User’s Guide.  
NoteThe LaserJet 4, 4 Plus, and 5 printers all use
different envelope feeder products.
To install the Envelope Feeder:
1Turn OFF the printer.
2Open the MP tray.
3Remove the black plastic cover from inside the printer (see
Figure 3-21).
Figure 3-21 Remove the Black Plastic Cover
Configuration 3-49 
						

							4Insert the Envelope Feeder firmly into the printer (see Figure
3-22).
5Turn ON the printer.
LaserJet 4 and 4 Plus
The envelope size (EE \fRAY=) appears on the display when the
envelope feeder is installed and loaded with envelopes.  The
envelope size can be selected through the Control Panel.   Paper
jams can result if the envelope size selected does not match the
envelopes loaded into the envelope feeder.
LaserJet 5
The envelope size ( ENV FEED=) appears in the  CONFIG MENU when
the envelope feeder is installed.  The envelope size can be selected
in the  CONFIG MENU .  Paper jams can result if the envelope size
selected does not match the envelopes loaded into the envelope
feeder.
Note It is not necessary to configure the Envelope
Feeder to the printer through the printer
’s
Control Panel. The printer automatically
recognizes the presence of the Envelope Feeder
and prints from the feeder as the software
requires.

							SIMM Installation
SIMM installation is covered in detail in the the printer’s  User ’s
Manual  and in the kit that accompanies the SIMM.  The
instructions shown here are not intended to replace these sources.
Follow these instructions to install memory, language, and flash
SIMM boards. Install all types of SIMM boards in the same
manner.
Protecting the SIMM Board 
SIMM boards can be damaged easily by small amounts of static
electricity. To prevent damage from static electricity:
•Touch the surface of the antistatic package before removing
the board from its package.  When handling the board,
frequently touch bare metal on the printer or the antistatic
bag, or wear an antistatic wrist strap. 
•Avoid moving about the work area to prevent generating static
electricity. 
•Handle the board carefully at all times. Avoid flexing it or
touching its components.
Configuration 3-51 
						

							Any SIMM board can be installed in any of the four SIMM slots.
Because the slots are close together, we recommend installing
them from right to left, starting with slot 1 and ending with slot 4.

							Memory Requirements
A page’s complexity (rules, graphics, or dense text) may exceed
the printer ’s ability to create the image rapidly enough to keep
pace with the printing process. If a page is too complex, only part
of the page prints, and some print data loss is likely.  In such
cases, a  21 PRINT OVERRUN  message (signifying possible loss of
print data) or a Clearable Warning message appears in the
display.

1 More memory may be required if using downloaded soft fonts, forms, or complex
text with a large number of downloaded typefaces.
2 Numbers in parentheses indicate the approximate amount of memory available to
the user for data files, downloaded typefaces, and other non-system uses.
3 For PostScript language applications only, a 
“mini-legal”  page will print with this
amount of memory.

							CautionWhen removing a board from the antistatic
package, avoid touching the metal traces on the
SIMM board.
For memory boards, compare the part number on the outside of
the package to the part number in the table below. If you have
not received the correct board, notify your authorized
Hewlett-Packard dealer immediately.  
The LaserJet 4 Plus Optional Memory (C3130A, C3131A,
C3132A, C3133A, or C3146A) is not compatible with the HP
LaserJet 4. If the LaserJet 4 Plus Optional Memory  is installed
in the LaserJet 4, the printer will display a 
“53.\bX.08 ERROR ” (X
indicates the position of the SIMMs slot).
