Special information for PowerBook owners

PowerBook computers that have internal modems may require special setups. What you do depends on whether the Powerbook has one or two serial ports on its back panel.

PowerBook computers with one serial port

Some PowerBook computers have a single serial port identified by a combination printer/modem icon ([/W). If an internal modem is installed on one of these PowerBook computers, the serial port may be in use even though it looks available. When you plug in the Color StyleWriter 2500, the PowerBook may not be able to communicate with the printer.

To make the port available for printing, make sure the serial port setting is Normal or External. To check the setting, open the PowerBook, PowerBook Setup, or Express Modem control panel. (If you have another kind of internal modem, you may have a different control panel. The control panel and the setting you use depend on which PowerBook you have and which internal modem you have.) If you have a PowerBook Express Modem, it is best to leave the serial port setting as Normal or External unless the modem programs you use require another setting for compatibility reasons.

PowerBook computers with two serial ports

Even when a PowerBook has two serial ports, if it also has an internal modem, the modem port (W) may look available but actually be in use. If the printer port ([) is available, connect the Color StyleWriter 2500 to it. If the printer port is unavailable and you must use the modem port, make sure the modem serial port setting is Normal or External. To check the setting, open the PowerBook, PowerBook Setup, or Express Modem control panel. (If you have another kind of internal modem, you may have a different control panel. The control panel and the setting you use depend on which modem and system software version you have.) If you have a PowerBook Express Modem, it is best to leave the serial port setting as Normal or External.
