Tips for Network Administrators
The following sections contain additional information about
EPSON Status Monitor 2 that may be useful to network
administrators.
Controlling packet traffic on the network
EPSON Status Monitor 2 communicates with the printer
across the network. If too many computers are monitoring
printers over the network, or if too many printers are being
monitored, packet traffic can slow down the network
significantly.
To limit the packet traffic on your network, you may want to
designate one printer administrator to monitor all the printers
on the network. Or you may want to allow users to monitor
only the printer they use most often.
