Apple 2500 manual Power Macintosh users and Virtual Memory

4Place 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.
