Using EPSON Status Monitor 3

EPSON Status Monitor 3 allows you to monitor your printer's
status, alerts you when printer errors occur, and provides
troubleshooting instructions when needed. It is available when:
❏ The printer is connected directly to the host computer via
the parallel port [LPT1] or the USB port, and
❏ Your system is configured to support bidirectional
communication.
Status Monitor 3 is installed when you install the printer driver
(as described in the User's Guide). When sharing the printer, be
sure to set Status Monitor 3 so that the shared printer can be
monitored on the printer server. See "Setting up EPSON Status
Monitor 3" on page 42 and "Setting up the printer server" on
page 45.
