The '''Amstrad DMP2000 Printer 8K Buffer Kit''' from [[Goldmark Systems]] is a RAM upgrade for [[Amstrad]]'s [[DMP2000]] and [[DMP3000]] printersprinter.
The "kit" seems to be simply consisting of a 8K SRAM chip, to be used as replacement for the printers built-in 2K SRAM, increasing the buffer size by 6K. Aside from exchanging the RAM chip, one must also change the J3 jumper on the PCB (as shown in the [[:Image:DMP2000 Schematic.png|DMP2000 Schematic]]).
The kit doesn't seem to be required for newer DMP printers - according to [[Media:LQ3500di and LQ5000di Leaflet upgrade should also work with the DMP2160 printer (English).pdf|LQ3500di and LQ5000di Leaflet (English)]] and [[Media:AMSTPRINT Leaflet (Norwegian).pdf|DMP3160/DMP3250di/DMP4000/LQ3500/LQ3500di/LQ5000di AMSTPRINT Leaflet (Norwegian)]] - these do already have 8K Buffer a faster version of the DMP2000, which has only 2K RAM built-in. According to german DMP service manuals, only DMP2000 and DMP2160 have 2K RAM (where the upgrade would make sensetoo). Whilst The DMP3000 and up later models do already contain include 8K RAM built-in (, so the there's no need to upgrade wouldn't make any sense)them.
