Batteries If you run your notebook on battery power for extended periods, you may want to buy an additional battery so you can swap batteries when necessary. See "Changing batteries" on page 27 for more information about using an additional battery. Carrying cases Gateway has large-capacity carrying cases if you need additional space for accessories or supplies. Memory Large programs, such as multimedia games or graphics programs, use a lot of memory. If your programs are running more slowly than you think they should, try adding more memory. See "Adding or replacing memory" on page 32 for more information. Port replicators Although you can attach devices directly to your notebook, a port replicator lets you make all of those connections at one time. When you travel with your notebook, you merely disconnect from the port replicator instead of unplugging all the devices. A port replicator also provides additional ports and other expansion features not included with your notebook. See the user guide for the port replicator for more information about using a port replicator with your notebook. Printers You can attach almost any type of printer to your notebook. The most common types are inkjet and laser printers, which print in color or black and white. Inkjet printers and cartridges are relatively inexpensive, but they are slower than laser printers. Using an inkjet color printer, you can print pictures, banners, and greeting cards, as well as documents. Laser printers and cartridges are more expensive, but they print much faster than inkjet printers. Laser printers are better than inkjet printers when you are printing large documents. USB flash drive Use a USB flash drive for storing files or transferring files to another computer. 29
