Starting The Status Monitor - Oki PT340 User Manual

3.1 Starting the Status Monitor

To use Status Monitor, start it before printing any documents.
Status Monitor is added to the Windows "Startup" folder when it is installed which means it launches
automatically when you start Windows.
If you print a document after shutting down Status Monitor, it is not automatically restarted.
To display Status Monitor, you need to set the printer interface as bi-directional. Enable the
bi-directional communication function from the printer driver. Note that the bi-directional
communication function is enabled by default when the printer driver is installed.
<Guide>
To enable the bi-directional communication function, open the printer properties, select the "Enable
bidirectional support" checkbox in the "Ports" tab, and then click [OK] or [Apply]. (The following
example shows the printer properties on Windows 7.)
