Chapter 2, “Using Options,” gives step-by-step instructions for installing the options available for the printer. Chapter 3, “EPSON Status Monitor 3 Utility,” allows you to view printer status information such as the remaining amount of toner and check for any printer errors.
Page 10: About Your Printer
Appendix B, “Contacting Customer Support,” explains customer support information. About Your Printer Your printer is the latest in EPSON’s advanced line of laser printers. The printer’s 600/300-dpi (dots per inch) resolution is enhanced by EPSON’s Resolution Improvement Technology (RITech), which smooths the jagged edges of diagonal and curved lines in both text and graphics.
Page 11: Options
High-quality printing Your printer provides 600/300-dpi printing at a speed of up to eight pages per minute. You’ll appreciate the professional print quality produced by your printer and its quick processing speed. Toner Save Mode To reduce the amount of toner used in printing documents, you can print drafts using the Toner Save Mode.

Page 16: Note For Using Shared Printers In Windows Nt 4.0
First, you need to set up the printer as a shared printer on the computer to which the printer is connected. Then, you must specify the network path to the printer from each computer that will use it, and install the printer software on those computers.
Page 17 To access your printer from another computer on the network, follow these steps. Note: Your printer must be set up as a shared resource on the computer to which it is directly connected before you can access it from another computer.

Page 21: Using The Dma
Using the DMA Faster printing with a Direct Memory Access (DMA) is possible if your printer is connected to your computer through an Extended Capability Port (ECP), a type of parallel port with expanded specifications. With the DMA and the ECP, you can send print-job data directly to the printer without going through the CPU, which increases the effectiveness of data flow.
Page 22: Paper Handling
Paper Handling The printer can feed paper from either of two sources: the standard paper-tray or the optional lower cassette. Please note the following points: Paper should be high quality and relatively smooth with a weight between 60 and 90 g/m² (16 to 24 lb).
Page 23 Insert the paper printable side up into the tray and adjust the paper guides. Note: Before printing make sure the Paper Size setting in your printer driver matches the paper you load. 3. Place the cover on the paper-tray.

Page 25: Printing On Special Media
Note: Since the quality of any particular brand or type of paper may be changed by the manufacturer at any time, EPSON cannot guarantee the quality of any type of paper. Always test samples of paper stock before purchasing large quantities or printing large jobs.
Page 26: Optimizing Print Quality
Optimizing Print Quality Using RITech Resolution Improvement Technology (RITech) is EPSON’s original printer technology that improves the appearance of printed lines, text, and graphics. The RITech setting The factory setting for RITech is on. The RITech gives the best quality text and graphics for nearly all purposes.
Page 27: Adjusting Print Density
Increasing the print density increases toner consumption. If you select darker print, you may need to replace the developer cartridge more often. Enhanced MicroGray Enhanced MicroGray (Enh. MG) is EPSON’s new printer technology created especially for high quality output of photos and other images with smooth tonal changes.
