Installing the Printer Software
After you connect the printer to your computer, you need to
install the software included on the EPSON printer software
CD-ROM shipped with your printer.
Your printer software includes:
❏ Printer driver
The printer driver is the software that runs, or “drives,” your
printer. With it, you can make printer settings such as print
quality, resolution, and paper size.
❏ EPSON Status Monitor 3 (Windows 95, 98, or NT 4.0 only)
The EPSON Status Monitor 3 notifies you of printer errors and
displays printer status information.
To install the printer software, see “Installing the software in
Windows 95, 98, or NT 4.0” on page 1-18 or “Installing the
software in Windows 3.1 or NT 3.5x” on page 1-19. If you are using
DOS, see “For DOS programs” on page 1-20.
