About Your Printer Software
The Epson software includes the printer driver software and 
EPSON Status Monitor 3.
The printer driver is software that allows your computer to 
control the printer. You need to install the printer driver so your 
Windows software applications can take full advantage of the 
printer’s capabilities.
Epson Status Monitor 3 allows you to monitor the status of your 
printer, alerts you when errors occur, and provides you with 
troubleshooting tips. Status Monitor 3 is automatically installed 
when you install the printer driver. 
Note:
❏ Network printers cannot be monitored with EPSON Status 
Monitor 3 in Windows

on your computer described in the User’s Guide.
❏ Make sure the software setting is set to ESC/P.

software and EPSON Status Monitor 3 can function only in
