NOTE:
* Always fill the lowest numbered banks first. It doesn't matter what order the 4 MB or 8 MB memory modules go in as long as the lower banks are filled.

* Do not use RAM from another laser printer with a LaserWriter Pro 810.

* Once you have upgraded your printer's memory, you need to reconfigure the printer driver to take advantage of the additional memory. Open the the Chooser's Setup box. Click More Choices in the Setup box. Click Configure, choose the options installed on your printer and click OK.
