Introduction

Your EPSON Stylus Color 980N Professional Series printer is the ideal output device

for business graphics, digital photographs, and more. It includes a built-in EpsonNet

10/100 Base TX Internal Print Server that lets your printer communicate using a

variety of Ethernet protocols. The EpsonNet configuration software and additional

utilities let you manage all your network printers, monitor printer status, and print

across the internet.

How To Use Your Documentation

To set up your EPSON Stylus Color 980N printer and install the network software

needed for printing, see the following sections:

Setting Up Your Printer explains how to physically set up the printer and connect it

to the network.

Installing the Network Software describes the EpsonNet software utilities (for

Windows®95, 98, 2000, NT®4.0, and Apple®Macintosh®). Follow these

instructions to install the software and configure your printer for protocols including

Novell®NetWare,®TCP/IP, and AppleTalk.®

Installing the Printer Driver on the Workstations tells you how to install the printer

driver on each networked workstation. The printer driver runs the printer, controls

how documents look, and lets you configure the port settings so each workstation can

see the printer over the network.

Using Status Monitor 3 for Windows tells you how to monitor a printer over the

network to check for low ink levels and other possible problems. Status Monitor 3

also lets you use TCP/IP for printing in Windows 95, 98, and 2000 peer-to-peer

networks.

After you’ve set up your system as described in this book, see the Administrator’s

Manual for additional network, configuration, and Ethernet card information. An

Start.book Page 1 Tuesday, October 3, 2000 5:14 PM

electronic copy of the Administrator’s Manual is included on the Printer Software

CD-ROM, along with the EPSON Stylus Color 980 Reference Guide, which contains

detailed instructions on using your printer. For instructions on viewing these guides,

see below.

For additional tips on loading paper, printing, cleaning the print head, and replacing

ink cartridges, watch the Fix-It Flix printer movies as described on page 6.

If you need to contact EPSON for help or for parts and accessories, see “Where To

Get Help” on page 41.

Warnings, Cautions, and Notes

The following symbols are used in this book:

Viewing Your Electronic Manuals

drive and view them from there.

Warnings must be followed carefully to avoid bodily injury.
