Your system doesn't have
enough resources.
You're using background
printing on a Macintosh.
Your Spool Manager
settings are incorrect
(Windows 95/98).
Your printer switches to the modem port or won't confirm on the printer port
(Macintosh).

Your system has extension
conflicts.
You're using an AppleTalk
cable.
Your printer icon doesn't appear in the Chooser (Macintosh).
Possible cause

Solution
For the fastest printing, try the following:
Set Print Quality to Economy.
Turn High Speed on.
Choose No Halftoning.
Choose Black ink.
See Chapters 1 and 2 for more information.
Reduce the resolution of your image.
Clear space on your hard disk drive or run a defragmentation
utility.
Don't run too many applications at the same time.
Turn off virtual memory.
Increase your system's memory (RAM).
Choose Get Info from the File menu when your application is
active and increase the memory requirements. See Chapter 4 for
more information. Or turn off background printing (you won't be
able to use Monitor3).
Change your default spool directory and other settings as
described in Chapter 4.
Solution
Make sure AppleTalk is inactive. In the Extensions Manager,
disable the AppleShare, FileShare, and PrinterShare extensions.
Set your printer and any unused printers to the printer port. Then
restart your system.
Make sure you're using a standard Apple System Peripheral-8
cable. See Appendix B for specifications.
Solution
In the Extensions Manager, disable Quick Draw GX. Make sure
EPSON Monitor3 and EPSON Stylus Color are enabled, then
restart your Macintosh.
