Problem Solving - Epson Stylus COLOR 480SX Printer Basics Manual

Problem Solving

Because your printer constantly monitors its status, it will report to you if it has a
problem such as jammed paper or low ink levels. It does this by displaying an
EPSON Status Monitor 3 window on your screen telling you what the problem is
and guiding you through the solution steps.
If you see a status monitor window, follow the on-screen instructions. If that
doesn't solve the problem, check "Problems and Solutions" beginning on page 33
for additional steps.
For problems that your printer can't report to you—such as installation or print
quality problems—look for a section describing the problem beginning on
page 33.
For help identifying the parts of your printer, see page 32.
If you need to contact EPSON or one of your bonus software manufacturers, see
page 41 or page 42.
It's a good idea to check EPSON's web site periodically for possible
updates to your printer driver. Visit support.epson.com and check the
section for your product to see if there is a new driver available for
downloading to your computer. To check the version number of your
current driver, access the Properties dialog box, as described on page 10;
the version number is shown in the lower left corner.
