Checking for Software Updates

Periodically, it's a good idea to check Epson's support website for free updates to your product software. You can select Download the Latest Software from the Home screen of this manual or visit Epson's driver download site (U.S. downloads or Canadian downloads).

•Windows: Your printer software automatically checks for updates. You can also manually update the software by selecting Software Update here:

•Accessing the Windows Desktop and right-clicking the product icon in the Windows taskbar

•On the Maintenance tab in the printer settings window

You can also update the software by selecting EPSON Software Updater in the EPSON or EPSON Software program group, accessible by the Start button, or on the Start or Apps screens, depending on your version of Windows.

•OS X: You can manually update the software by opening the Applications > Epson Software folder and selecting EPSON Software Updater.
