Displaying the Machine Status on a Macintosh
Using the Status Monitor, you can display the amount of ink left and other machine status details on the
computer. You can also check any errors that occur in the print job queue window.
The print job queue window opens automatically when you execute a print command. Using the Status
Monitor, you can also display the machine status without executing a print command.
To view the machine's status on your computer, bidirectional communication between the machine and
computer must be established.
