Introducing the Printer Software Functions
The printer software includes a printer driver and printer
utilities. The printer driver lets you choose from a wide variety
of settings to get the best results from your printer. The printer
utilities help you check the printer and keep it in top condition.
The quickest and easiest way to start printing is to leave the
Mode option set to Automatic on the printer driver’s Main
menu. This way you only need to check the Media Type and
Ink settings, as described on page 3-7.
Basically, there are three levels of settings: the Automatic
setting; the predefined settings, which are predefined but give
you more control over printer settings; and the custom settings,
which you make to fit your individual needs. These settings are
described in detail starting on page 4-5.
To check the condition of the printer or perform a maintenance
procedure, see “Using EPSON Printer Utilities” on page 4-14.
Accessing the Printer Software
As explained on the following pages, you can access the printer
driver settings and printer utilities contained in your printer
software directly from any Windows application, or from My
Computer in Windows 95 or Program Manager in Windows
3.1. The print settings made in many Windows applications
override similar settings made in the printer driver, so in most
cases you should access the printer software from your
application to make sure that the settings are appropriate for
the document you want to print.
Note:
Online help is available for details about the printer driver settings.
