Managing Print Jobs on a
Macintosh
Your Macintosh printer software includes two management
utilities: Monitor2 and Status Monitor.
◗ If you’re using background printing, Monitor2 starts
automatically when you send a job to the printer. It handles
printing while you continue to work on your Macintosh
and lets you track documents that are waiting to be printed.
◗ The Status Monitor alerts you to any problems that occur
during printing. You can also use it at any time to see how
much ink you have left.
Using Monitor2
The Monitor2 utility lets you continue to work on your
Macintosh while your document is printing. However,
background printing is slower and may also slow down your
system.
If you want to use this utility, you need to turn on background
printing in the Chooser and increase the memory allocation for
Monitor2. Follow these steps:
1. Open the Chooser from the Apple menu and select the
EPSON Stylus(EX) icon. Then click either the printer or
modem icon.
2. Under
Background Printing, click On and close the
Chooser.
3. To increase the memory allocated to Monitor2, select
EPSON Monitor2 in the Extensions folder in your System
folder.
