About Your Printer Software

Note:
When using the printer connected over a USB interface, you can print using the Epson software on a
Windows computer. When using the printer over another connection, contact your administrator.
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.
When installing the printer driver, you can also install EPSON Status Monitor 3 along with other
utilities from the software disc.
Note:
❏ Before proceeding, make sure you have installed the printer driver on your computer.
❏ The on-screen displays on the following pages may differ depending on the version of Windows OS.
