Installing In Windows - Epson Stylus Photo 1290 User Manual

❏ Printer software (printer driver and utilities)
The printer driver runs, or "drives," your printer; use it to
make settings such as print quality, speed, media type, and
paper size. The Nozzle Check, Head Cleaning, and Print Head
Alignment utilities help you keep your printer in top
operating condition. EPSON Status Monitor 3 (for Windows)
or EPSON StatusMonitor (for Macintosh) notifies you of
printer errors and displays printer status information such as
the amount of ink remaining. The Status Monitor also guides
you through the ink cartridge replacement process.
❏ EPSON PhotoQuicker
This utility lets you print digital photos using a wide variety
of layouts and effects with ease.
❏ Online guides
The online Reference Guide helps you learn more about your
printer.
If you wish to make a floppy disk version of the printer software
on your CD-ROM, you can use the driver disk creation utility
included on the CD.
Refer to the appropriate section.
