Using Monitor3 - Epson Stylus Color 850N User Manual

The Status Monitor alerts you to any problems that occur
during printing. You can also use it at any time to see how
much ink you have left.
The Configuration utility lets you select how you want to
be notified of printer errors and where you want print job
files stored.

Using Monitor3

The Monitor3 utility lets you continue to work on your
Macintosh while your document is printing (however,
background printing is slower and may also slow down your
system). You can then open the Monitor3 dialog box to check
on your print jobs and cancel, pause, or restart them.
To use this utility, you need to turn on background printing
and increase the memory allocation for Monitor3, as described
in the next section.
