No idea on that but I had the same problem with my epson750 photo running
under win98 and WinME. I don't know why but I did a reinstall a few weeks
ago and the monitor started working and I can't work out why because it
never
worked before. I can only say that another program in my PC was causing the
problem but working out which one would take forever.

BTW, I checked epson for drivers and I find it VERY odd there is no XP
version of the status monitor, have you tried the WinME update??
 
Hi all,

Took me ages to get my parallel epson 850 printer working with xp fully and
finally to get status monitor 2 working.

For anyone whos trying, and is probably the same with any 1yr old+ printer
from epson that they've decided not to properly support with xp, just get
epson status monitor 2 for windows 2000 and right click on the setup.exe
file. Set the compatibility mode to windows 2000 and it will install ok, and
will let u check inks and so on. The one I downloaded from epson's site "for
windows xp" just didnt work for some reason. Also dont use the standard
windows xp drivers, download the ones from the epson site and use those.

Regards,
Laurent

and if that fails try this one

The reason I posted my message is that those drivers simply dont work.

Follow the instructions in my message and it should be fine. Let me know if
SM2 doesnt work but I am sure it will
