"Printer Status Monitor" allows the user to check on the computer screen whether or
not the machine is able to print.
It provides information on error states such as paper misfeeds and shows the

Available paper sizes are also indicated.

This enables you to send a fax from your computer to a fax machine via the machine.
Sharpdesk/Network Scanner Tool
Sharpdesk is an integrated software environment that makes it easy to manage
documents and image files, and launch applications. Network Scanner Tool is a
utility that helps you use Scan to Desktop. Those are contained in the separate
Sharpdesk CD-ROM. If you need more details about Sharpdesk, please refer to the
"Sharpdesk Information Guide" provided on the CD-ROM. See also "HOW TO
INSTALL SHARPDESK" (p.54).
* The scanning feature can only be used with computers that are connected to the
