About Your Printer Software
The Epson software includes the printer driver software and
EPSON Status Monitor 3.
The printer driver is software that allows your computer to
control the printer. You need to install the printer driver so your
Windows software applications can take full advantage of the
printer’s capabilities.
EPSON Status Monitor 3 program allows you to monitor the
status of your printer, alerts you when errors occur, and provides
you with troubleshooting tips. EPSON Status Monitor 3 is
automatically installed when you install the printer driver. If you
want to install EPSON Status Monitor 3 later, see “Installing
EPSON Status Monitor 3” on page 61 for instructions.
Note:
❏ The network printers can not be monitored with EPSON Status
Monitor 3 in Windows 95.
❏ Before proceeding, make sure you have installed the printer driver
on your computer described in the Start Here.
❏ Make sure the software setting is set to ESC/P. The printer driver
software and EPSON Status Monitor 3 can only function in ESC/P
mode.
