If you have trouble printing

If you have problems printing a document, refer to the Color StyleWriter 6000 Series Toolbox, which is installed automatically with your other printer software. The Toolbox contains instructions for the primary printing tasks as well as step-by-step help for a number of problems that might occur when printing.

If you’re using DOS, launch either Windows 3.1 or Windows 95 to use the Toolbox.
