The following I remember from a recent article in c't (german magazine).
Both, the 500C and the 550C use a three-color and a black cartouche. The  
500C however carries only one at a time, so it asks you to exchange it,  
when necessary. This is not only a little inconvenient, but also means,  
that it can't use black ink inside a color picture, what the 550C does,  
thereby enhancing output quality.

I have seen a 500C running with a NeXT using Dots color, which seemed to  
work fine. Of course, it was not too fast. I am considering buying a 550C  
myself.
