Basic Printing
Note:
If you are using Windows
98 or Me and connecting
to the printer through
your USB port or through
a network, you will not
see the status
information.
The following status information also appears:
Media Check
A check in the Perform Media Check before printing box
means this function is selected (the default setting). The
Media Check function automatically compares the media
selected with the printer control panel with the media
selected in the printer driver and alerts you if they don't
match. To turn off this function, click the box; the
checkmark disappears.
Paper Status
The Paper Status box displays information about the paper
loaded in the printer. You select the paper feed path in the
driver, and the Status Monitor checks the printer for the
size, type, and amount. The paper size and amount is
determined by the printer. The media type is defined
by the Media Type setting you make with the printer's
control panel.
Ink Status
The Ink Status box displays the amount of remaining ink
for each color.
Checking Printer Status with Windows NT
With Windows NT 4.0 servers and workstations, the messenger
service alerts you to printer errors or lets you know when a print
job is finished. If you have appropriate network access privileges
or if you're controlling printing from the server, you can also
cancel, pause, or restart print jobs and set the sharing, security,
scheduling, and port options. See your Windows NT 4.0
documentation for details.
