Place the printer in your work area.

Choose a location near your computer that has a grounded electrical outlet
and good ventilation, is out of direct sunlight, never gets damp or very hot or
very cold, and is away from devices that could cause electromagnetic
interference, such as stereo speakers or cordless telephone transmitters. Do
not place the printer on a slanted surface. See Appendix A, “Technical
Information,” for specific information about the physical requirements of your
printer.

IMPORTANT

Don’t accidentally discard the ink cartridge storage case. You need

it to store an opened cartridge that you’re not using in the printer. The case
keeps the print head from drying out and prevents accidents with ink stains.

If you print only a few color images, and most of your printing is in black,
you can purchase a high-performance black ink cartridge and use it as an
alternative to the color ink cartridge. When either cartridge is not in the
printer, keep the cartridge in the storage case.

You can use the same ink cartridge in both a Color StyleWriter 2400 and a
Color StyleWriter 2500.

Power Macintosh users and Virtual Memory

If you are using a Power Macintosh computer, be sure to turn on Virtual
Memory before you try to print on the Color StyleWriter 2500. Then choose a
setting that’s at least 1 MB higher than your “Available built-in memory.” (You
can set it higher without any ill effects.) With this setting, you will avoid some
potential printing problems. Turning on Virtual Memory also reduces the
amount of memory needed by many applications. For instructions on turning
on Virtual Memory, see the documentation that came with your computer.
