Accessing EPSON Status Monitor
EPSON Status Monitor is a utility program that monitors your printer and gives you
information about its current status.
Follow the steps below to access EPSON Status Monitor.
1. Right-click the tray icon on the taskbar.
2. Select your printer name and then Simple Status. The Simple Status window appears.
Note:
You can also access EPSON Status Monitor by clicking the Simple Status button on the Optional
Settings tab on the printer driver.
To find detailed information on EPSON Status Monitor, see "Information on EPSON Status
Monitor" on page 81, "Simple Status" on page 81, "Detailed Status" on page 82,
"Consumables Information" on page 83, "Job Information" on page 84, "Notice Settings" on
page 86, "Order Online" on page 88, and "Tray Icon Settings" on page 89.
Note for Windows XP/XP x64 users:
EPSON Status Monitor 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 98:
Novell Client 3.4 for Windows 95/98
❏ For Windows XP or 2000:
Novell Client 4.91 SP1 for Windows 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.
