The computer crashes while attempting to print

When a computer suddenly stops working—either a message on the screen
tells you a system error occurred or the mouse and keyboard act as if they’re
disconnected—the computer has crashed.

If your computer often crashes after you tell it to print a document, your
printing software may have become corrupted, Reinstall the printer software
by following the instructions in “Installing Your Printer Software” and
“Telling Your Computer to Use the Color StyleWriter 1500” in Chapter 1.

A Power Macintosh has trouble printing to the Color StyleWriter 1500

If you are using a Power Macintosh computer, be sure to turn on Virtual
Memory before you try to print on the Color StyleWriter 1500. 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.

A PowerBook has trouble printing to the Color StyleWriter 1500

Some PowerBook computers have special requirements for printing. See
