Installing the Printer Software
After you connect the printer to your computer, you need to install the software included
on the EPSON printer software CD-ROM shipped with your printer.
Your printer software includes:
Printer driver
The printer driver is the software that runs, or "drives," your printer. With it, you
can make printer settings such as print quality, resolution, and paper size.
EPSON Status Monitor 3 (for Windows Me, 98, 95, 2000 and NT 4.0)
The EPSON Status Monitor 3 notifies you of printer errors and displays printer
status information.
EPSON Remote! (a DOS-based printer setup utility)
The EPSON Remote! utility allows you to easily change the printer's default
settings from the computer screen. See Chapter 3, "Using the Printer Software" in
the online User's Guide.
To install the printer software, see "Installing the Printer Software in Windows Me, 98,
95, 2000 or NT 4.0" or "Installing the Printer Software in Windows 3.1 or NT 3.5x" in
this section. If you are using DOS, see "For DOS programs" on page 17.
