This chapter explains how to control the printer. It is divided
into four sections:
❑
“Using the Printer Driver” describes how to use the printer
driver to control settings such as paper type, document
type, printing mode, and halftoning.
❑
“Managing Print Jobs” explains how you can use the
EPSON Spool Manager to monitor, cancel, or change the
order of print jobs.
❑
“Using the Printer’s Control Panel” covers the printer
functions available through the control panel on the top
front of the printer.
❑
“Using the Default Setting Mode” describes how to access
the printer’s Default setting mode. In rare cases, you may
need to specify the print direction, use a different character
table, or adjust the paper loading position. To make these
and other changes, see this section for instructions.
Using the Printer Driver
The printer driver contains settings that allow you to control
your print job. The printer comes with default values for all the
settings, as listed in the table on page 2-6. Change the printer
driver settings only if you want to use values different from the
default ones.
The driver includes an
Automatic
setting (default) when you
set the Document Type option. This setting lets the printer
driver analyze each page of the document you will print and
then select the appropriate printing mode (resolution), color
matching, and halftoning settings automatically.
