Using Monitor3
The Monitor3 utility lets you continue to work on your Macintosh while 
your document is printing (however, background printing is slower and 
may also slow down your system). You can use the Monitor3 dialog box 
to check on your print jobs and cancel, pause, or restart them.
To use this utility, you need to turn on background printing and increase 
the memory allocation for Monitor3, as described in Setting Up Monitor3
.
Setting Up Monitor3
1 Open the Chooser from the Apple menu and select the SC 900 icon. 
Then select the port you’re using.
2 Under Background Printing, click On and close the Chooser.
3 To increase the memory allocation, select EPSON Monitor3 in the 
Extensions folder in your System folder. Then choose Get Info from 
the File menu and set the Memory Requirements to 2000 or 3000K, 
depending on your system’s available RAM.
You may need to 
perform different or 
additional steps to 
allocate memory, 
depending on your 
Macintosh OS 
version; see your 
Macintosh 
documentation for 
more information.
You can also turn on 
background printing 
while you’re using 
your printer software; 
see Setting Up 
Background Printing 
Options for 
instructions.
