Installing The Printer Software - Epson LX-1170 User Manual

Installing the Printer Software

After you connect the printer to your computer, you need to
install the software included on the EPSON printer software
CD-ROM shipped with your printer.
Your printer software includes:
Printer driver
The printer driver is the software that runs, or "drives," your
printer. With it, you can make printer settings such as print
quality, resolution, and paper size.
EPSON Status Monitor 3 utility (Windows Me, 98, 95, 2000 or
NT 4.0)
The EPSON Status Monitor 3 utility notifies you of printer
errors and displays printer status information.
EPSON Remote! (a DOS-based printer setup utility) (LX-300+
only)
The EPSON Remote! utility allows you to easily change the
printer's default settings from the computer screen. See
"Using the EPSON Remote! Utility (LX-300+ only)" on page
3-16.
To install the printer software, see "Installing the software in
Windows Me, 98, 95, 2000, or NT 4.0" on page 1-20 or "Installing
the software in Windows 3.1 or NT 3.5x" on page 1-21. If you are
