About Your Software
The printer software CD-ROM that came with your printer includes all the software you
need for printing. See the Start Here sheet for installation instructions.
■ Your printer driver runs your printer and lets you control how your documents look. You
can’t print from your computer without it.
Tip: It’s a good idea to check EPSON’s support web site periodically for free
updates to your printer driver. Visit http://support.epson.com. Download
instructions are posted for your convenience.
■ Your photo software includes these great tools:
EPSON Software Film Factory is a photo management program that
lets you organize, beautify, and print your photos in a flash. Supports
PRINT Image Matching (both P.I.M. and P.I.M. II) and Exif Print.
EPSON PhotoStarter and CardMonitor utilities help your system
handle photos on a memory card. If you want, you can have your photos copied to your
computer automatically—and even open one of your photo editing programs—whenever
you insert a memory card in your printer. (These programs are installed automatically
with your printer driver.)
P.I.M. II Plug-in for Adobe Photoshop lets you retain PRINT Image Matching and
Exif Print image quality when you import JPEG or TIFF files from your P.I.M.-,
P.I.M. II-, or Exif Print-enabled digital camera. (Compatible with Photoshop 6.0 and 7.0,
and Photoshop Elements 1.0 and 2.0.)
■ Your on-screen Reference Guide gives you additional details about your printer. You need
a browser—such as Microsoft
®
Internet Explorer version 4.0 or later, Netscape
®
Navigator
®
version 3.0 or later, or Safari
™
version 1.0 or later—to view the guide. See
page 10 for details.
■ EPSON PhotoCenter is EPSON’s free photo-sharing web site where
you can store, organize, and share your photos; print high-resolution
photos straight from the web; and create free online postcards with your
photos. Your printer software installer lets you add a link to the EPSON
PhotoCenter on your desktop.
