Printer Driver and Status Monitor
The printer driver lets you choose from a wide variety of settings to get the best printing results. The status monitor and
the printer utilities help you check the product and keep it in top operating condition.
Note for Windows users:
❏
Your printer driver automatically finds and installs the latest version of the printer driver from Epson’s Web site. Click
the
Software Update
button in your printer driver’s
Maintenance
window, and then follow the on-screen instructions.
If the button does not appear in the
Maintenance
window, point at
All Programs
or
Programs
in the Windows Start
menu, and check in the
EPSON
folder.
❏
If you want to change the language of the driver, select the language you want to use from the
Language
setting in your
printer driver’s
Maintenance
window. Depending on the location, this function may not be available.
