The Lotus service person is right.  You will need at least 1 Meg of 
memory to print a full 300 dpi page of graphics.  You'll need more
if you plan to use several downloadable fonts in addition to the 
graphics.

BTW, this is true for all programs, not just 1-2-3, that you want to
print graphics from to a laserjet.
