The Status Monitor utility is a configurable software tool for monitoring the status of one or more devices,
allowing you to get immediate notification of error messages such as paper empty or paper jam.
You can check the device status at anytime by double-clicking the icon in the tasktray or by choosing
Status Monitor located in Start/All Programs/Brother/MFC-XXXX on your PC.
(Windows

If you have set the Enable Status Monitor on startup during installation, you will find the button or the
Status Monitor icon on the taskbar.
