About the Printer Software
The printer driver lets you choose from a wide variety of settings to get the best results from
your printer. EPSON Status Monitor lets you check the status of your printer.
See "Monitoring Your Printer Using EPSON Status Monitor" on page 77 for more
information.
Accessing the printer driver
You can access the printer driver directly from any application programs, from your
Windows operating system.
The printer settings made from many Windows applications override the setting made
when the printer driver is accessed from the operating system, so you should access the
printer driver from your application to make sure that you get the result you want.
Note:
The printer driver’s online help provides details on printer driver settings.
