Windows; Connecting The Printer - Epson Pro 9000 Printer Manual

Appendix C:
Using EPSON
Drivers and
Utilities for

Windows

Your EPSON Stylus Pro 9000 and 9500 come with drivers that let you use
the printer in non-PostScript mode without a RIP. Utilities allow you to
manage print jobs, track the status of your printer, and run print head
maintenance procedures. ICC profiles are included, so you can use advanced
color management features of your applications or the driver itself.
The driver CD-ROM also includes an electronic Reference Guide to the
EPSON Stylus Pro 9500 and printer software. You can read the guide using
a web browser, such as Netscape Navigator or Microsoft Internet Explorer,
versions 3.0 or later.
This chapter includes the following information:

Connecting the Printer
You can connect your computer's parallel port using the printer's built-in
parallel interface. You can also use a conversion cable (such as the EPSON
USB adapter, C-USB-PK4) to connect to a USB port on your computer.
If you connect the EPSON Stylus Pro 9500 to a networked computer, you
can use the printer sharing feature to allow network printing. See page C-5
(Windows 95/98) or C-8 (Windows NT 4.0/2000) for instructions.
If you installed the optional EPSON FireWire interface or EpsonNet
Internal Print Server, you can connect through these interfaces. See
Appendix A for instructions.
