Status Alert window
This window indicates what type of error has occurred and offers
you a possible solution. It closes automatically once the problem
is cleared.
The Status Alert window opens under the conditions you select
in the Monitoring Preferences dialog box.
If you wish to see information about printer consumables, click
Consumables. Once this button is clicked, the Status Alert
window will not disappear even after a problem is cleared. To
close the box you need to click OK.
Stopping monitoring
The EPSON Status Monitor 3 monitors the printer during printing
and while the EPSON Status Monitor 3 dialog box is open.
To monitor during printing only, close the EPSON Status Monitor
3 dialog box.
To stop all monitoring completely, clear the Monitor the Printing
Status check box in the printer driver's Utility tab. You may want
to do this to speed up printing or if you don't need to monitor the
printer at all.
