EPSON Status Monitor 3 displays status messages and shows 
the current status of the printer. If a problem occurs while 
printing, an error message appears in the Progress Meter 
window. For more information, see page 56.

If you are having trouble printing, you can print a self test to 
help you determine whether the printer or the computer is 
causing the problem:

❏ If the self test results are satisfactory, the printer is working 

properly and the problem is probably caused by your 
printer driver settings, application settings, computer, or 
interface cable. (Be sure to use a shielded interface cable.)

❏ If the self test does not print properly, there is a problem 

with the printer. See “Problems and Solutions” on page 106 
for possible causes and solutions to the problem.

Follow these steps to perform a self test:

1. Make sure the printer is turned off and that paper is loaded 

on the front or rear tractor.
