USING THE PRINTER WITH A COMPUTER

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

This chapter provides the basic information necessary to use the printer connected to a computer. For more
information on the functions available, consult the User Guide by selecting Start > Programs > Olivetti.
Other information can be obtained by selecting Help in the dialogue boxes.
Before you begin:
1 Make sure that the printer and computer are connected correctly, and that the CD software has been installed
successfully on the computer as indicated in the Installation Guide supplied with the printer.
2 Load the paper on which to print.
3 Make sure that the out-of-ink indicators on the front panel are switched off. If either is not, you are advised to
replace the corresponding ink cartridge. See "Replacing the Ink Cartridges" for more information.

THE PRINTER STATUS MONITOR

The printer Status Monitor provides information on the current printer status. It is installed when you install the
software contained on the "Installation" CD.
The Status Monitor displays automatically at the beginning of a print or copy job:
• A graphical representation of the percentage of the print or copy job already completed.
• The number of pages already printed, or copied, out of the total number of pages in the job.
• A graphical representation of the estimated amount of ink, as a percentage, still available in the colour and black
cartridges.
• The possibility to cancel the print or copy job.
• The address of the manufacturer's web site where you can access information on purchasing new ink cartridges.
The Status Monitor closes automatically at the end of a print or copy job, but you can close it at any time.
If you close the Status Monitor during a print or copy job, it is automatically redisplayed.
• When the printer is in the out-of-ink or almost out-of-ink conditions. A coloured exclamation mark indicates the
cartridge in a low-ink condition (colour, black, or both), and the relative percentages.
Pop-ups are displayed with the address of the manufacturer's web site where you can access the information for
purchasing new ink cartridges.
