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 2400 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. (The
control panel and the setting you use depend on which modem and system
software version you have.) If you have an Express Modem, it is best to leave
the serial port setting as Normal or External.
For more information, see the manual or on-screen help that came with your
PowerBook.
