I am going to buy an HP LJ 5500 and I am wondering how much memory is really necessary for an office with no more than four computers.

The print jobs are pretty big files, pagemaker, photoshop, illustrator.

The two models I am debating over are the 5500dn and 5500dtn. The cheaper model has 96 MB standard memory and for $1100 more it has 160 MB. Both models are expandable to 416MB.
 
96mb is more than enough memory for four users even if the files are large dont waste money for no reason.
 
If I am not wrong, the DTN comes with an extra tray also [wink]
Additional memory can usually allways be added to the printer afterwards. So save the extra bucks unless you also have the need for an extra tray.
