Using Status Monitor 3 for
Windows
EPSON Status Monitor 3, which installs automatically with the printer driver, lets
you monitor a network printer from any workstation running Windows 95, 98, 2000,
or NT 4.0. It gives you ink levels for the printer and notifies you if the printer has any
problems. It does create network traffic, however, so you may want to limit the
number of users who can monitor the printer. (See “Disabling Background
Monitoring” on page 39 for more information.)
If you have a Macintosh, you can monitor information about a
locally attached printer. See your electronic Printer Basics
book for details.
When you start EPSON Status Monitor 3, you see this window:
If an ink cartridge is empty or runs low, a
How to
button appears on the window.
You can click it to display cartridge replacement instructions and to move the print
head to the cartridge replacement position.
