Note:

❏To share the printer on a Windows network, you need to set the print server. For details, see "Setting up your printer as a shared printer" on page 134 (Windows Me or 98) or "Using an additional driver" on page 136 (Windows XP, 2000, NT 4.0, or Server 2003).

❏This section describes how to access the shared printer on a standard network system using the server (Microsoft workgroup). If you cannot access the shared printer due to the network system, ask the administrator of the network for assistance.

❏This section describes how to install the printer driver by accessing the shared printer from the Printers folder. You can also access the shared printer from Network Neighborhood or My Network on the Windows desktop.

❏You cannot use the additional driver on the server system OS.

❏When you want to use EPSON Status Monitor 3 at clients, you have to install both of the printer driver and EPSON Status Monitor 3 in each client from the CD-ROM.
