The Color StyleWriter 2500 won’t print a particular document

If you attempt to print a document and no page is printed—not even a blank
one—try the following:

m Check for messages on your Macintosh screen. Also, open the window for

your printer by double-clicking its desktop icon.

m Your computer may be low on memory. See “Memory Is Low,” later in this

chapter.

m Turn the printer off, then on again. (This resets the printer.)
m Repeat the printing process.

Sometimes problems disappear when you try to print your document again.

m Printing problems can often be caused by errors in your programs. If you

can print from the SimpleText or TeachText program but not from another
program, it’s probably a problem with that program. Contact the publisher
of that program for help.

m Restart your Macintosh.

The printer acts as if it’s working, but nothing is printed on the page

If your printer takes the paper, but doesn’t actually print anything, try the
following:

m If the ink cartridge is new, make sure that you removed the orange tape

from its print head.

m Make sure the ink cartridge and the ink tanks in the four-color cartridge

are correctly installed. (For instructions, see “Replacing Ink Tanks in the
Four-Color Ink Cartridge” and “Replacing the Ink Cartridge” in Chapter 4).

m The printer may be out of ink. You can check by seeing whether the test

page prints. To print a test page, see “Checking the Print Nozzles” in
Chapter 1.
