Monitoring Your Printer Using EPSON Status Monitor 3

EPSON Status Monitor 3 is a utility program that monitors your printer and gives you information about its current status.

Note for Windows XP users:

Shared Windows XP LPR connections and shared Windows XP Standard TCP/IP connections with Windows clients do not support the Job Management function.

EPSON Status Monitor 3 is not available when printing from a Remote Desktop connection.

Note for Netware users:

When monitoring NetWare printers, a Novell Client that corresponds to your operating system must be used. Operation is confirmed for the versions below:

For Windows Me or 98:

Novell Client 3.4 for Windows 95/98

For Windows XP, 2000, or NT 4.0:

Novell Client 4.9 for Windows NT/2000/XP

To monitor a NetWare printer, connect only one print server to each queue. For directions, see the Network Guide for the printer.

You cannot monitor a NetWare queue printer beyond the IPX router because the setting for IPX hops is 0.

This product supports NetWare printers configured by a queue-based printing system such as Bindery or NDS. You cannot monitor NDPS (Novell Distributed Print Services) printers.
