Epson Stylus Color 480SXU

Dear all,

I have installed the Epson Stylus Color 480SXU driver in Vista. However, I
am unable to install the Printer Status Monitor 3 (SM3). Without the SM3, I
don't know how to change the ink cartridge as there is no button on this usb
printer. Please advise how to change the ink cartridge without the SM3.

Many thanks

Hi Jerry

I had probs with my Epson Stylus CX5200 and spent a hell of a lot of time
trying to sort things out. One of my probs was that, like you, I had no way
of monitoring the ink levels. Eventually I was helped by one of the Epson
Techies who pointed me in the right direction. The 'solution' is not ideal
but something is better than nothing(!) - the driver that the Techie got me
to download still doesn't show the Monitor but, instead, an amended screen
has a new button on it "Get Ink Levels" - press it and, hey presto, you can
see them! However, I have yet to see what happens when I need to change an
ink cartridge.

Even though you and I are using different printers, you might be interested
in having a look at the info the Techie gave me. It is on one of my
websites www.friendlysoft.co.uk.

Cheers
John
