Optimizing Memory Since HP DeskJet 340 printer driver image the pages in system memory, the amount of available system memory affects printer performance-the more memory available, the less time required to print a page. This section describes how the HP DeskWriter/DeskJet 300 Series Version 6.0.1 printer driver uses memory. The Macintosh RAM is a large stack: • HP DeskJet 340 printers require a total memory size of at least 4 MB on System 7. • Recommended total memory size for color and grayscale printing is 4 MB minimum. • Additional memory (5 MB or more) increases flexibility in working with applications. The system heap loads into the lower portion of computer memory. The system heap includes the system code, the Finder code, and free allocated memory for the system heap.

Optimizing Memory
Since HP DeskJet 340 printer driver image the pages in system memory, the amount of available system
memory affects printer performance—the more memory available, the less time required to print a page.
This section describes how the HP DeskWriter/DeskJet 300 Series Version 6.0.1 printer driver uses
memory.
The Macintosh RAM is a large stack:
HP DeskJet 340 printers require a total memory size of at least 4 MB on System 7.
Recommended total memory size for
color and grayscale
printing is 4 MB
minimum
.
Additional memory (5 MB or more) increases flexibility in working with applications.
The system heap loads into the lower portion of computer memory. The system heap includes the system
code, the Finder code, and free allocated memory for the system heap.
