NOTE: DA30S/DA50S/DA55S

The similarity of the DA30S/DA50S and DA55S printers allows their

features and operation to be documented together. The principle

difference in these printers is that the DA55S is a color printer that

uses both a black and color ink cartridge. The DA30S/DA50S only

uses a black ink cartridge.

The photos and illustrations in this document are of the DA55S

printer, but representative of each printer.
