Questions & Answers

Question: What do the LocalTalk Modules look like? Are they cards? Are they identical?

Answer: The Color StyleWriter LocalTalk Options are external modules. They connect to the back of the printer and plug into the serial port. The LocalTalk Options are not cards.

The Color StyleWriter 2400 LocalTalk Module (M3458LL/A) does not have any writing on it, the Color StyleWriter 2400/2500 LocalTalk Module (M4615ZM/A) says LocalTalk module for the Color StyleWriter 2400 and 2500.

Question: Which printers do the Color StyleWriter LocalTalk modules work with?

Answer: The Color StyleWriter LocalTalk Module M3458LL/A only works with the Color StyleWriter 2400. The Color StyleWriter LocalTalk Module M4615ZM/A works with both the Color StyleWriter 2400 and Color StyleWriter 2500.

Question: What printer drivers do I need? Is there a Color StyleWriter 2400 AppleTalk/Color StyleWriter 2500 AppleTalk driver?

Answer: You use the printer driver that ships with the printer. The driver supports both serial and LocalTalk connections. There is not an AppleTalk StyleWriter driver for either printer. However, the Color StyleWriter 2500 driver is backward compatible and can be used with either printer.The Famous Apple!
