The Color StyleWriter 2400 was a color inkjet printer from the StyleWriter series that was released by Apple Computer in late September 1994, superseding the Color StyleWriter Pro.[1]

Description[]

The Color StyleWriter 2400 featured a maximum resolution of 360-dpi and could print at a speed of 3 pages-per-minute in black only, or about 3 minutes-per-page in color.[2] Color PhotoGrade is supported through a print kit which includes an integrated ink cartridge with print head, along with special paper and updater software.[3] It is compatible with Canon BC-20/BC-21BK/BC-21C/BC-21E/BC-22 (black/black/color/4-color/photo) bubblejet cartridges.[4]

An optional Color StyleWriter LocalTalk Module added support for LocalTalk networking without the need for a host computer.[5] An optional StyleWriter EtherTalk Adapter added connectivity to 10BASE-T and 10BASE2 Ethernet for faster networking.[6]

Included fonts[]

64 TrueType fonts are included on disk.[6] Support for PostScript Type 1 fonts can be added by using Adobe Type Manager.[7]

Discontinuation[]

The Color StyleWriter 2400 was soon replaced by the Color StyleWriter 2500 on March 14, 1996.[2][6]
