We have a Laserwriter IINTX with 2 meg of memory. I installed a 4 meg upgrade into the printer. It only recognizes 3 meg of total memory. The first two banks had 256k simm modules for a total of 1 meg in each bank. The new simms are 1 meg for a total of 4 meg. I'm assuming that there is a resistor to add or delete to tell the printer that there is 4 meg in bank 2. Can anyone help? The memory came with no instructions, just a little note saying that only an Apple dealer can do the installation. E-mail or follow up post is fine. Thanks, Leo.

Leo, When you installed the higher capacity SIMMs you probably installed them in "Bank B". The LW II needs to find the higher capacity chips in "Bank A". Try swapping the four 256K SIMMs in A with the four 1 MB SIMMs in B. I keep doing this to myself with Mac II's. :-) ... and don't forget to turn the power off first... :-) -Chris Christopher E.
