Printing a Status Sheet

To confirm the current status of the printer, print a status sheet from the printer driver. The status sheet contains information about the printer, the current settings, and the installed options, if any.

Follow the steps below to print a status sheet.

For Windows users

Click Start, point to Settings and click Printers.

Right-click the EPSON EPL-5900L Advanced icon, and click Properties in the menu that appears.

Click the Optional Settings tab and then click Status Sheet. The printer starts printing a status sheet.

Note:

When you install an 8 MB SIMM, the total printer memory is the standard 2 MB plus the optional SIMM. However, even if you install an optional 16 MB or 32 MB SIMM, the total printer memory is increased to its maximum of 13 MB only.

If information about the installed options is not listed on the status sheet, make sure that the options are installed correctly.

If you cannot print a proper status sheet, contact your dealer.
