Note for Windows XP 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 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.
