Installing the Printer Driver/Utility

Follow the steps below to install the printer driver.

Note:

EPSON Status Monitor 3 is installed with the printer driver. EPSON Status Monitor 3 is a utility program that monitors your printer and gives you information about its current status.

Note for Windows 2000 users:

If you do not follow the steps below to install the printer software, Microsoft's Universal driver may be installed. To check to see if the Universal driver is installed, right click anywhere on the printer driver properties screen and then click About. If a screen with the words "Unidrv Printer Driver" appears, follow the steps below to reinstall the printer driver.

If the Found New Hardware Wizard appears, click Cancel and follow the steps below to install the printer software.

If the Digital Signature Not Found screen appears, click Yes. If you click No, you must reinstall the printer software as described below.

Make sure the printer is turned off and Windows is running.

Insert the CD-ROM that comes with your printer into your CD-ROM drive.

The EPSON Installation Program screen opens automatically.

If the EPSON Installation Program screen does not appear automatically, click Start and Run (Windows 98/95/2000/NT 4.0); or choose Run from the File menu in the Program Manager (Windows 3.1 or Windows NT 3.51). Then, enter D:\EPSETUP.EXE and click OK (substitute the appropriate drive letter if necessary).

Double-click Install Printer Driver/Utility, or select Install Printer Driver/Utility and then click the arrow at the top right.

In the dialog box that appears, select the printer name and click OK. The printer driver is installed automatically.

Windows 2000 only: Follow the on-screen instructions to turn on your printer. The printer port configuration starts automatically. For printers connected via USB cable, the USB device driver installation starts automatically at this point.

When installation is complete, click OK.

The printer driver/utility is now installed on your computer.
