If you’re using Windows 95, the Status Monitor box appears inside the Despooler dialog box (as shown above) each time you send a print job. It includes a gauge representing the amount of ink left in the cartridges and an icon that reports the current status of your printer. The icon also alerts you to any printer error conditions.

Note:

The Status Monitor appears only if your printer is connected to the host computer; it does not appear when you are printing over a network with the printer connected to another computer.

The Status Monitor displays these icons:

Checking the printer status.

A printing error has occured and your printer cannot print.

The printer is ready to print.

The printer is currently printing.

The ink level is low or empty; check the Ink Out light on the control panel and replace the cartridge.

If you need to run Spool Manager while you’re printing, select the icon (Windows 3.1) or button (Windows 95) near the bottom of your screen. You can also run Spool Manager from the EPSON program group or folder when you’re not sending a print job. (See the printer driver online help utility.)

Note:

In Windows 3.1, you may not see the Spool Manager icon in the bottom portion of your screen if the Program Manager window or an application window is maximized. Reduce the window size to reveal the icon.

Choosing Paper and Other Media

You can use most plain paper with your printer and achieve good results. For better results, use EPSON specially coated ink jet paper because it provides the best surface for the ink used in your printer. EPSON offers specially designed media for EPSON ink jet printers, available in a choice of sizes.
