This chapter explains how to manage print jobs that you send
to the printer using the EPSON Spool Manager. It also tells you
how to calibrate the printer using the EPSON Printer
Calibration Utility if vertical lines in your printed output
become misaligned.

Managing Print Jobs With Spool Manager
When you print a document, the computer uses the EPSON
Spool Manager to send data to the printer. This allows you to
continue working in your software program while printing.
When you send a print job to the printer, the Despooler status
box appears in the bottom right corner of your screen and an
icon for the EPSON Spool Manager appears in the lower left
corner. The Spool Manager icon is also included in the EPSON
group so you can manage print queues or perform other
operations when you are not sending a print job.
