The HP LaserJet 2840 contains 96 MB of factory memory. The device is equipped to serve normal business functions in everyday use, but to complete more complex printing jobs, you may need more computing power. The printer is equipped with a DIMM slot, which can be used to install a 100-pin SDRAM stick. Including the factory memory, the amount of memory can be upgraded to 244MB. The largest SDRAM stick that can be used is 128 MB.
