(2) Setting Up Drivers From Within Applications 
Print setup is not available from within some applications. Setting print
conditions for the driver from these applications will have no effect on printing.
When using applications that do not support print setup, print only after setting
the driver print conditions from the Control Panel.

(3) Zoom Options Printing
The edges of the original may not be printed in the Zoom Options modes. 
Make sure that sufficient space is available for the left, right, top and bottom
margins when printing in these modes.

(4) Separator Page
The Separator Page feature may not function correctly in some operating system
environments.

(5) For Windows Me/98/95 users
If EMF is used as the data type for spooling, it may take time to access the
printer driver properties while printing. In this case use RAW, the default data
type, for spooling.

1. General troubleshooting solutions

1-1. If a Windows shared printer cannot be monitored, check the following:

	*Make sure that the printer driver is installed on the computer
	 that is hosting the Windows shared printer and that, in the printer
	 driver, the printer is set to be shared. Also make sure that "Allow
	 monitoring of shared printers" is selected in the Monitoring 
	 Preferences dialog box.

	*(Windows Me/98/95) On the server, double-click the Network icon in
	 Control Panel and make sure that the "File and printer sharing for
	 Microsoft Networks" component is installed. Then, on the server AND
	 clients, if the "IPX/SPX-compatible Protocol" is installed, make sure
	 that the "TCP/IP Protocolh is also installed.

1-2. Limitation when monitoring Windows shared printers over routers

In Windows Me/98/95/NT 4.0, Windows shared printers cannot be monitored over
routers.
In Windows XP/2000, you can monitor Windows shared printers over routers
if you select the "Monitor over routers" check box in the More Settings dialog
box accessed via the Monitoring Preferences dialog box.

1-3. If network printers cannot be monitored after returning from sleep mode in a Windows 95 environment, do the following:

Close the printer driver and EPSON Status Monitor 3, then restart the Status Monitor. For information on accessing the Status Monitor, see your printer's Reference Guide.

1-4. To ensure proper operation, a computer name must be entered in the computer's settings.  Make sure there are no invalid characters in the name. If your printer is shared or on a network, make sure the name is unique to your computer. For information on setting the computer name, see the documentation for your operating system.

1-5. In some cases, warnings might not be displayed when print jobs from two or more computers are in the print queue at the same time.

2. Solutions for Windows XP/2000/NT environment

2-1. When uninstalling EPSON Status Monitor 3 from a multi-user Windows 
XP/2000/NT environment, remove the shortcut icon from all clients before 
uninstalling. You can remove the icon by clearing the Shortcut Icon check
box in the Monitoring Preferences dialog box.
