Found this :

> Go here for product specs for the LJ 4M & 4MP. Basically, it says that it comes with 2MB RAM standard and towards to bottom of the page it says it has two SIMMs slot for additional RAM. It also explains "The optional memory required for the HP LaserJet printers is directly influenced by the complexity of the graphics and soft fonts being used." It then talks about the type of SIMMs required: "SIMM specifications for the HP LaserJet 4p/4mp printers are 72-pin, 32-bit, and 80 ns. Presence Detect must also be available on the SIMM. (The HP LaserJet 4p/4mp printers can use 36-bit memory from the HP LaserJet 4 printer.)"
