Optimizing Print Speed
You can use the Speed and Progress utility to improve printing speed.
1. Click the Utility tab, then click the Speed and Progress button. You
see this window:
2. Select from the following options:
• High Speed Copies speeds up printing of multiple copies of the
same document using hard disk space as a cache. If you have
multiple hard drives, you can select a different drive to spool to in
the High Speed Copy Folder list to the right.
• Show Progress Meter lets you control whether or not the Progress
Meter is displayed when you send a print job.
• Disable EPSON Status Monitor 3 disables the printer software
utilities. Selecting this option is not recommended unless you
experience conflicts with other software.
• Show Mouse Over Help lets you turn off the tool tips that appear
when you move your cursor over the screen.
• Processed by Printer allows the halftone output processing to be
performed by the printer. This feature speeds up processing,
especially for older computers, and ensures that the printer runs at
maximum speed. This involves image compression and
decompression, and does not affect the quality of your output.
Note: If you want to
disable display of the
progress meter during
printing, you can click the
Show Progress Meter
checkbox to deselect it.
