Printer Software
The LQ-570e comes with printer software on a CD-ROM which includes a printer driver for Microsoft® Windows® and some helpful utilities. You do not need to install this driver if you are happy with the driver(s) you are currently using for your LQ-570+. The LQ-570e printer hardware is backward-compatible with ESC/P2 software drivers.
If you decide to install the software, you can take advantage of the following features:
❏A printer driver which lets you control printing.
❏The EPSON Status Monitor 3 utility for Windows versions 95, 98, and NT 4.0 (or later). The Status Monitor displays information about the printer’s status and lets you know if there is a problem with a print job.
❏The EPSON Remote! utility, a DOS-based printer setup utility that lets you change printer default settings from your monitor screen. (This provides an alternative way to change the default settings as described on page 9.)
See the LQ-570e User’s Guide for instructions on installing and using the printer software.
